Night Wish

Wish, upon a star
The elves would bring
A big cookie jar
A reward up to par
Would be a tune played
On the guitar

Faded Holiday Memory

A faded snapshot
Of a place, the time forgot
This was no holiday, store bought
Rather a memory
Every child should have got

Time for a treat
No, it’s not a seat
But soft woollen shoes
To drive away
The winter’s blues

Posted in Mundane Monday : Photography /Poetry /Humour

“I like to make the mundane fabulous whenever I can”
Rufus Wainwright

Winter Time in Clogs 

I may not be a snob
Do the odd job
But certainly the odd dog
When spending my winter time
In my trusted wooden clogs

Sunday before X-mas for Daily Photo (three)

Posted in Daily Photo: Photography and Poetry

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison

Sunday before X-mas

In a comfortable winter’s sled
A holiday heart, glowing in red
Cheer and joy, for a while it will spread
No one knows, what here it lead
Or where it will next head
So each night, before you go to bed
Whisper a wish to keep it fed

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison

Sunday before X-mas

Icing on the red vines
Blurring, all the straight lines
Nature’s tableau refined
Like an artist’s work, defined

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison

Sunday before X-mas

Peeking behind the closed curtains
Heart beating, in uncertain anticipation
What mysteries, lie behind the window
On a Sunday, filled with falling snow

Retro Sofa for Seat Sunday

Posted in Seat Sunday: Photography and Poetry

“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet”
Napoleon Bonaparte

Retro Sofa

Quite classical
In its time,
Even radical
Some say,
Too theatrical
Others called it,
Magical

The sofa from the past
Was made to last
Now, in rebroadcast
It’s selling,
Really, really fast!

Feathery Flecks for Daily Photo (two)

Posted in Daily Photo: Photography and Poetry

“Wintery day,
On my horse
A frozen shadow.”
― Bashō Matsuo

Feathery Flecks 

Still pretty never the less
Like a princess’ dress
In an icy press
Quite the nature’s success
