Sweet Cherries for The Daily Post

“Life is not a bowl full of cherries, there’s good and bad stuff” Fuzzy Zoeller

Sweet Cherries 

Good things
Do grow on trees
If you look closely
The come in threes..

Or maybe twos
Or maybe
They do multiply
On the branches
Up high

The Look

He’s got the look
And all it took
Was a cute little
Brown-eyed crook
To look up
From you book
And get you hooked

Born with Teeth

I am a carnivore
But you may me adore
As I lay on the floor
So very close to the door
So better go to the store
And get me some more
Meat
Before I get bored

“To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
One clover, and a bee,
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few.”
― Emily Dickinson

Clever Clovers for Daily Photo

Clever clovers green and white
Clever clovers strong and bright
Clever clovers fluffy and light

Enjoy them on green grass
Enjoy them in vase
Enjoy them in a salad mixer

Needless to say
Clever clovers
Are great in any way!

“Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow, that I shall say good night till it be morrow” William Shakespeare

Good Night from Suburbia Daily Photo

A good night to One and All!

Wishes,
That the sky on you won’t fall
That the neighbour won’t eat your meatball
That the cat a mouse inside won’t haul
That the kids won’t steal your football
That the computer an update won’t install
And,
That in your dreams you will have a ball

So,
A very good night to One and All!

Poetry, photography, humour, travel, tales and things that nature!

“A short story is something that you can hold in your mind. You can really analyze how the entire thing works, like a machine” Chuck Palahniuk

 Could it be?

Could it be?
Can you see?
Is it true?
Who knew!

So what if it is
This wasn’t a quiz
It’s no one’s biz
If we go to the Ritz

Never mind
I’ll be fine
I got a dime
Let it chime

Out on the street
Dancing to the beat
Life oh so sweet
Oh what a treat

The lesson learnt
Don’t get burnt
Even if you weren’t
Dance ’till you aren’t

The White Cat in a Hat

The little white cat
With a black hat
Was taking a nap
On the kitchen mat

Her tail all curled
As she softly purred
Oblivious to the world
As it around her whirled

Something made her stir
Looking up with a stare
Straight up stood her fur
As she took off in a blur

The hat off tore
Landed on the floor
The cat was out the door
Heard was a loud roar

Shortest of Tales for Throwback Thursday

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.

This week, the archives have brought forth the shortest of tales, and really odd ones at that! Enjoy!

Once there was a Man

Once there was a man
Who did not understand
That the greatest of plans
Was already in his hands

So he went around town
Looking for his crown
His face in a big frown
Feelings of letting down

But when he saw a beggar
With the biggest smile ever
He suddenly turned around
And his smile finally found

Day Nine: “Double” — Rotate Your Image

Your twin sisters. Your neighbor’s two poodles. Your vision during a dizzy spell. Your doppelgänger. Double can be interpreted in many ways.

Two for the Double (WP Developing Your Eye II)

“I think I am seeing… double!!!”

Sweets by the Double

What do I spy
With my own little eye?

Sweets by the double
Please call Hubble
Because I am in trouble
Please,
Someone burst this bubble!
