Birds for SL-WEEK

catch-me-if-you-can

“The early bird may get the worm, but it’s the second mouse that gets the cheese” Jeremy Paxman

Catch me if you can!

High up on the tree branch
No, not a fancy bird from France
Don’t write about me with Comic Sans
Just try to catch me if you can
With your supposedly fancy cam!

“I have never known birds of different species to flock together. The very concept is unimaginable. Why, if that happened, we wouldn’t stand a chance! How could we possibly hope to fight them?” Alfred Hitchcock

Reflections (SL-WEEK 44)

true-or-reflection

“Once I’ve taken photographs, I look at them, and I get into them, and I’m there for the moment – and then that’s it. I find little time for reflection” Pattie Boyd

Truth or Reflection

Just an illusion
Causing much confusion
Which one is the truth
And which is the reflection?
Or are they both perfection
In a mind’s eye?

Glass Wall Reflections

Blue skies
Blue waters
Blue reflections
Blue feelings?
Nah:
They are just reflections
Glass wall projections
Real life is more colourful
And now,
Feeling more powerful

Reflections (SL-WEEK 44)

“Once I’ve taken photographs, I look at them, and I get into them, and I’m there for the moment – and then that’s it. I find little time for reflection” Pattie Boyd

Nightly Reflections

Scary darkness surrounding
My heart is wildly pounding
The waves in the distant sounding
A flicker of light in the distance
Easing my earlier resistance
Now walking towards the pier
Mind still filled with fear
Behind me, dragging my gear
Finally arriving at my destination
Looking at the dark water with hesitation
Chewing my thumb
But the time has come…
To dive in

Water’s Reflections

The day could not be more hotter
Time to dip in to the cool blue water
And soon, you will feel like an otter

Wine Shaded Reflections

Ho, Ho, Ho,
And A Bottle Of Wine
Set it on the table top
Open the cork will pop
Soon enough happily
We all shall shine!

Yellow Mini-marine for SL-WEEK 42

Photo Challenge by SYLVAIN LANDRY
A response to Sylvain’s challenge theme of Car

yellow-mini-marine

“Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It’s the only way to live
In cars”
Gary Numan – Cars

Yellow Mini-marine

We all want to drive a yellow Mini-marine
A yellow Mini-marine, a yellow Mini-marine
Life is fun in a yellow Mini-marine
A yellow Mini-marine, a yellow Mini-marine
I also wanted one for me
A yellow Mini-marine, a yellow Mini-marine
But turned out there was a larger fee
For a yellow Mini-marine, a yellow Mini-marine
So instead I went out to ski
Instead of driving a yellow Mini-marine, a yellow Mini-marine
