Paths for the Daily Post (three)

Posted in the Daily Post: Path: Photography /Poetry /Humour

“Do not go where the path may lead,
go instead where there is no path and leave a trail”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Paths 

Just follow the path
It has no wrath
You may end up doing some math
Or even taking a bath
But don’t be a sissy
Little Missy
Just follow the path

Anticipation for the Daily Post

Whales Ahead

“Hop on
Hop off”
The seller scoffed
Waving us to board

Not knowing what was in store
Anticipation
Hesitation
Finally at sea
And nowhere to flee
The boat shook

“Oh, look!
Thar be whales here!”

Anticipation for the Daily Post

Up the River

Up the Swanee River
In anticipation
Awaiting
What the waters will deliver
Will it be dengue fever?
Will there be falling timber?
A very cold winter?
Maybe Long John Silver?
Never mind,
We are still awaiting
In anticipation
What the waters will deliver

Anticipation for the Daily Post

Ship Ahoy!

Ship ahoy!
This is not a ploy
But the real McCoy
We even invited Floyd
And now,
We are ready to deploy
On a trip of joy!

Anticipation for the Daily Post

Lift-Off

With growing anticipation
Waiting to leave this station
Without any hesitation
Travelling across the nation
In one big celebration

But…

“What is the hold up?
We are ready for lift off!”

Finding a Safe Harbour

Sailing, at sea
Is the place to be
But when the storm rises
You may end up in crisis
Unless, a safe harbour in time
You are lucky, to find

Blue on Blue

“Nothing but blue skies,
From now on”

Was the message of the song
Nope, you did not hear me wrong
Just stay strong
Summer and blue skies,
Will soon come along

Rays of the Sun

From behind the darkest of grey
The light source, found it’s way
Happiness, riding down in a sleigh
On a heavenly, highway

The Glow

“Peek-a-boo
I see you!”

Said,
The little ray of sun
As she came down
For some fun

“Are you looking for someone?”

Asked,
The palm
But remained calm
Despite the touch of sun
Feeling like balm

The ray of sun smiled
And replied,

“I’m here to play
But cannot too long stay
If there is one thing I have learnt
Things do get burnt
If I remain too long
Because no one
Is that strong”

“That’s cool,
And I’m no fool
I went to school!
And, if it gets too hot
I can dip in the pool”

The palm responded
And before too long
The two, had bonded

Something Arising, in the Horizon

Something strange?
Something scary?
Is the world, about to change?
Better get ready!
