Feeling Nostalgic for the Daily Post

“It is strange how we hold on to the pieces of the past while we wait for our futures.”
― Ally Condie, Matched

Nostalgia

Ah, Nostalgia
That sense of euphoria
Would even impress Gloria
When you are remembering
The “good old days”…

Quest for the Daily Post

Is this a road to nowhere?
Or is it taking you somewhere?
A place unexpected,
For a few selected?
So be very careful what you wish for
You may end up getting it!

Water’s Edge for The Daily Post: Two

“Life is a travelling to the edge of knowledge, then a leap taken”
D. H. Lawrence

Water’s Edge for The Daily Post

Landing softly
Like, into a big cup of coffee
Swimming around calmly
The water cool and salty
What did I expect?
This is sea water in all its respects!

Fish daring near
Without any kind of fear
Cool, I think
Now I am the king (or maybe queen)
Of all the sea creatures
Didn’t expect that
In this feature!

“Life is a travelling to the edge of knowledge, then a leap taken”
D. H. Lawrence

Water’s Edge for The Daily Post

When standing on the edge
I made this solemn pledge
To dive in
Even if,
There would be ice thin
Luckily,
This September weather
Is a reminiscent of a soft feather
More so,
Than a rainy autumn
Boy,
Must the Forecast Gods feel dumb!

"I stare at myself in the mirror and I think,
'Wow, I'm really great-looking.'...
I think I'm the greatest, anyway"
Iggy Pop

Selfies in the Mirror for The Daily Post

I am the prettiest of them all
At least after too much alcohol
Trying to stand here very tall
Realizing I really need a total overhaul

Iggy Pop

Selfies in the Mirror for The Daily Post

Admiring our own reflection
From each and every direction
Ducky lips, eyes transfixed
Oh what ages we live in
It’s really hard not to give in
To the prettiest face staring

Selfies in the Mirror for The Daily Post

Around and around we all flock
Each other’s views trying to block
Stabbing each other’s backs
Until the mirror almost cracked

Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who really is the prettiest
On the selfie-sticks of them all:
Me, you, or the neighbour’s dog?

“It is difficult to see the picture when you are inside the frame.”

Framed Landscape

Blue skies and sunfried fields
From the bus window do I see
Only a few moments
But time all well spent
And now my reward
Is permanently stored:
A framed landscape
Recorded, onto tape

Framed Ocean View

A perfect hideaway
With a view
Towards the bay
A framed display
Only for today
