“Easter. The only time it’s okay to put all of your eggs in one basket!” Author Unknown
Easter Time (Daily Photo)
After all the painted eggs and faces
The little witch nervously paces
Out into the wide world
She needs to fly like a bird
Because
For now
Easter time
Is over

“Don’t taunt the alligator until after you’ve crossed the creek” Dan Rather
(7-Day Nature Photo Challenge) Day Five
Down the creek
For treasure we seek
How clear and crispy
The water runs freely
Enjoy it now
Sooner or later
It may turn brown
Don’t be a hesitater!

“There’s nowhere else like London. Nothing at all, anywhere” Vivienne Westwood
Around the World in Photographs: London in Black and White
Over the rooftops
To the hustle and bustle
Of the streets of London
In just a few hops
A few old castles
And a famous dungeon
Hop on a bus
Without much fuss
Follow the lines
And you’ll be fine
Eyes wide open
Seeing more than hoping
In the evening
You are dreaming
Of how much more
The next day has in store

“Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature” Gerard De Nerval
(7-Day Nature Photo Challenge) Day Four
Pretty, little red spot
On the flower she will squat
Pretty, little Ladybug
The petals will hug

“The cure for anything is salt water: sweat, tears or the sea” Isak Dinesen
Water
The water spitting seal
Made out of steel
It’s teeth will reveal
Mouth agape
It takes its shape
Against the landscape

“This life is like a swimming pool. You dive into the water, but you can’t see how deep it is” Dennis Rodman
Water
In the deep blue pool
There are no rules
Just dive in, like a fool

“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water” Rabindranath Tagore
Water
When you take a dip into the cool ocean
Your body’s surrounded by nature’s lotion
While your mind fills up with pure emotion

“Dogs are my favorite people” Richard Dean Anderson
Cats ans Dogs
Cats and Dogs
Put them in a box
What secrets untold
Before you unfold
When the box is opened
Only keep hoping
There is no other agenda
Are they friends or enemies
Or just plain frenemies
That is the age old dilemma
Of Cats and Dogs

“Nothing burns like the cold.” George R.R. Martin
Frosted Forest
The snow was slowly floating
The trees with a powdery white cloaking
Like a sugar candy coating
As Mother Nature watched gloating
“Look how pretty I made it!
I don’t care one shit,
If the humans don’t see the fit.
It’s pretty and clean,
Most gorgeous thing they ever seen!
So what if it is freezing cold
And the ever rising wind blows!
Better suck it and enjoy,
For this, is my utter ploy!”
And so the little minions of Earth
Went forth in both fear or mirth
After all, how long could it be before the birth
Of summer

On Thursdays we walk down memory lane and dig deeply into the archives of Rantings Of A Third Kind. For these posts, I have chosen some of my personal favourites. Some of them may tickle the funny bone, some even provoke thoughts and some of them will give you a view of the world in photographs taken by yours truly.
Shall I Just Twitter Then? (TBT)
Peeping Tammy (Through the Lens) (TBT)
Let the Rantings continue!!!
