World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki

Baskets filled with goodies
Hats, trousers and hoodies
Maybe even a few cookies
Because it’s time to play hookie

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki

bikes-7

Bikes with motors are fine
When you want to avoid that grind
But a manual pedaller
May be a great leveller
When your pulse needs elevating
And your blood, circulating

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki

Where there is a lamppost
There is a will
The best parking host
For a bike to stay still

City bikes of yellow
For every gal and fellow
Driving by and waving hello
Before we break for jell-o

I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my bike
Snow, hail or rain trickle
I am none too fickle
I want to ride my bike

Life in a Fishbowl for Daily Photo

“When the fishbowl gets too small, it’s time to pack up and leave and jump into the lake or ocean” Travie McCoy

Life in a Fishbowl for Daily Photo

Through the looking glass
Life in a fishbowl will pass
It may not have much class
Or even built to long to last

So drop down your stones
And spare by weary bones
This place, I call home
A small see-through fishbowl

“My evil genius Procrastination has whispered me to tarry ’til a more convenient season”
Mary Todd Lincoln

Evil for Daily Photo

They call me evil
But I am not illegal
I am pretty and pink
You try to act so tough
But, soon enough
Your teeth in me you’ll sink

But
I am not evil
I am a delicious
Dough-nut!

“Excuse me while I kiss the sky” Jimi Hendrix

Pink Sky for Daily Photo 

The grey was so dull
It really hurt my skull
Added a dash of colour
Hoping, the sun soon would follow

Peeking behind the dark leaves
Oh what a magnificent view I see
Pretty pink sky at night
It was really well worth the flight

Pink Suede shoes for Daily Photo

pink-shoes-1

Don’t step on my pink suede shoes
Or I will be singing the blues

Instead of listening to all the boohoos
Just buy me a new pair of shoes
Because I have paid all my dues
And true shoes are my only muse

Don’t step on my pink suede shoes
Or I will be singing the blues

No more excuse
Turn on the news
There is nothing to loose
Except a cheap pair of shoes
