World Wide Wednesday in Brazil

1

“I see that it is by no means useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new” Jules Verne

Welcome to Manaus, Brazil

In the rain forest of Brazil
You can feel the thrill
Sailing down the river Negro
Quite the incognito
A glimpse of the dolphins
Can raise the endorphins

On the Streets of Vienna for World Wide Wednesday

“Österreich ist eine kleine Welt, in der die große ihre Probe hält.”
Friedrich Hebbel

On the Streets of Vienna

Vienna, Oh Vienna
We’re always glad to see ‘ya

You may not be as pretty as Sienna
Or even as hot as High Sierra
But we still love ‘ya
We really really love ‘ya

Vienna, Oh Vienna
We’re always glad to see ‘ya

Your old town feel
Some of it real
The others can’t steal
Don’t worry,
We made that deal

Vienna, Oh Vienna
We’re always glad to see ‘ya

“Dandelions, like all things in nature are beautiful when you take the time to pay attention to them.”
― June Stoyer

Three’s a Crowd (Rap)

Did you think
That three was a crowd
Then let this in sink
We are even more loud

We are gorgeously yellow
And we really like jello
We even play the cello
Waving you hello

Word!

One (Rap)

One is my name
I get all the fame
Because I stand all alone
My colours all shown
So be a nice fella
And get out the hella
I just want to be one
And have all the fun

Mundane Monday

“I have always been caught by the pull of the unremarkable, by the easily missed, infinitely nourishing beauty of the mundane.” Tana French, Broken Harbour

Just Eat It!

Tomatoes and eggs on your plate
No time to contemplate
Just eat it, just eat!
Don’t you make me repeat it!

This is not a debate
Or question of your weight
Just eat it, just eat!
Don’t you make me repeat it!

It’s healthy and great
Better clean up your plate
Just eat it, just eat!
Don’t you make me repeat it!

Well, I did, three times:
So eat it!

“Hey Clem, have you seen my yella shirt?”

Yella’ or Yellow? (SL-WEEK) 

“Take a little one step, two step, three step
Then a little spin like this”

The spring is almost here
Snow all but disappeared
Dots of yellow sprinkled around
Soon enough, multiple other colours
Will fill the ground

A Wanna-be Drag Queen (TBT)

Posted in the Throwback Thursday weekly series
Poetry, photography, tales and things that nature!

“I Look Fuckin’ Cool” – Adore Delano & Alaska Thunderfuck

A Wanna-be Drag Queen

There is just something
to be said
About a man
in a dress
Not one hair
in a mess
Everyone staring
at big earrings

A Sculpted body
and lean legs
The woman embodies
A honey trap?
but into the spiders webs

Sickening
Gorgeous
Bickering
Flawless
Fabulous
Marvelous

Out of this world
Down the runway they swirled
Looking fucking cool
All we do is drool

You better work
With your lips in a smirk
It’s just a quirk
Don’t let it irk

I may be a woman
Must come clean
Maybe an omen
But I’m a wanna-be drag queen

“It’s not personal, It’s just drag” – Alyssa Edwards

Baby I Can Drive My Car (TBT)

Posted in the Throwback Thursday weekly series
Poetry, photography, tales and things that nature!

drive my car

“I hooked up my accelerator pedal in my car to my brake lights. I hit the gas, people behind me stop, and I’m gone” Steven Wright

Baby I Can Drive My Car

Setting the scene
Pedal to the metal
Nerves unsettled
Giving it some gas
A little more for the blast
Overheating the machine

The engine is revving
Feels like heaven
Seeing is believing
The stress finally relieving
All the senses perceiving

No time to scoff
No time to fear
The moment is here
The road ahead, clear
Blast off!

Baby I can drive my car
Even though I’m not a star
Still I’m getting very far
Performance getting up to par
And maybe I love you babe

Ride, ride, ride your bike
Gently up the hill
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a chill

Winter 5

“Now is the winter of our discontent” Richard III, William Shakespeare

Blurred Bines

With a snow cover
On the top they hover
Not quite the clover
Still always on the upper
They say it’s a hopper

They call them the blurred bines
Yeah yeah yeah!
