World Wide Wednesday in Cyprus
“Stop worrying about the potholes in the road and enjoy the journey.” – Babs Hoffman
Down the hill
Down the hill
Feel the chill
Enjoy the thrill!

“I prefer the mystic clouds of nostalgia to the real thing, to be honest” Robert Wyatt
Fluffy Clouds for Daily Photo
Star of light,
Ever so bright
Behind the clouds
Ever so white
A giant satellite
Quite the sight
Power of dynamite
Quite right
Sun, sun
Pardon the pun
You came out
And now
We have fun

“I prefer the mystic clouds of nostalgia to the real thing, to be honest” Robert Wyatt
Fluffy Clouds for Daily Photo
Soft
Like cotton candy
The colour reminiscent
Of beaches
White and sandy
Blue skies filled
With soft fluffy clouds
Life chilled
Relaxation allowed
Now, all is
Fine and dandy

Quote a Week Tuesday (2016-07-26)
For this week’s quote of the week, I have chosen a reminder for us all: Enjoy!
“Practice like you’ve never won, perform like you’ve never lost”
Bernard F. Asuncion
Practice like you’ve never won,
In everything you do;
Success isn’t made overnight,
Let it be well done by you.
Perform like you’ve never lost,
Do all the best that you can;
No need for wasting time,
Show that you are the man.
Practice like you’ve never won,
Losing shall pull you down;
Exert extra effort to prevail,
Becoming talk of the town.
Perform like you’ve never lost,
Don’t be scared to make a mistake;
Learn lessons from failures
To taste the icing of the cake.
Discipline is all you need,
Days of negligence are gone;
Triumph tomorrow shall shine,
Practice like you’ve never won.
Bernard F. Asuncion

Red for Mundane Monday
“I didn’t like mundane life” Jeanne Calment
Red Fruit
They are
Healthy
Juicy
Delicious
Tasty
Fruity
Nutritious
They are not
Spaghetti
Soupy
Suspicious

Red for Mundane Monday
“I didn’t like mundane life” Jeanne Calment
Red Eyes
Glowing red hot streaks of light
Staring, still scared to lose my sight
Instincts kicking in: Fight or flight
Getting closer and closer
Movement slower and slower
Breathing lower and lower
Questions, filling my mind
What kind of monsters do I find
Will they be bad or will they be kind
“Well, guess there is only one way to find out”
She said out loud
And then, she opened the box…

Seat Sunday (2016-07-24)
“When in Cyprus, sit like the cypriots do”
Sitting, People Watching
On the seaside
By the roadside
As time slowly
Passes me by
Watching
Observing
Recording
Conversations,
Word exchanges
Life
Of the passers-by

“When in Cyprus, sit like the cypriots do”
Sitting on the Curve
As I am
Sitting on the curve
And watching
The cars swerve
It’s getting difficult
To keep my nerve

Seat Sunday (2016-07-24)
“When in Cyprus, sit like the cypriots do”
Sitting with lots of Stuff
It’s meal time
But, the table
Is not fine
Lots of stuff
Laying about
With a huff
Giving a shout
“Oi, you!
Get here
Ass in tow
Clear your grime!”
“Didn’t you hear the chime?
It’s nearly din din time,
And, my patience
Is running low
And, as far as I know
These ‘antiques’
Are just for show”
“So,
Unless you got
Something eatable
In that pot
Off with the lot
I have to put
Some grub
On the table!”
“Shut up,
Sit down
And enjoy
Your meal!”

Sweet Cherries for The Daily Post
“Life is not a bowl full of cherries, there’s good and bad stuff” Fuzzy Zoeller
Sweet Cherries
Juicy and sweet
Quite the treat
When on the beat
In the summer’s heat
And well worth
