Share an image evocative of the weather or represent the current “season of your life” in metaphor
“Now is the winter of our discontent” Richard III, William Shakespeare
Bending not breaking
Swaying back and forth
Somewhere up north
In a forsaken part of earth
Where mother nature gave them birth

Snowfall
It pours when it snows
When the soft white stuff downward flows
But still something strong grows
Even if the wind really hard blows

Snowy Cotton Balls
Fluffy and puffy
But still most toughie
Balls made of snow
In the darkness they’ll glow
Pick one up and whoa!
Then in a slow mo
It far away throw
Posted in The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Life Imitates Art
“Life imitates art far more than art imitates Life.”
— Oscar Wilde
“Everything you can imagine is real.” ― Pablo Picasso
Real Life or Just Art? (The Daily Post)
You may think life
Is just black and white…
The elderly lady
Looking for her pay day
What if just maybe
She is just a shade
Or art of different shape
Or a statue about to fade

Real Life or Just Art? (The Daily Post)
You may think life
Is just black and white…
But if you stop, look and listen
Just for a short instance
The lifeless statue in the street corner
May turn into something warmer
The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Time
This week, think about time and portray it photographically. Maybe you have a photo about one of the activities in the extract from Haig’s book above. Perhaps you have a fascination with clocks. Or maybe contemplating time takes you somewhere else completely. I hope you enjoy this week’s challenge.
“Even if it turns out that time travel is impossible, it is important that we understand why it is impossible” Stephen Hawking
Seconds
Heart beating
Time is running out
Only a few seconds left
For the ultimate request
Using a different route
Feels like cheating
Finally reaching
My own hideout
No time for rest
Only doing my best
No time for tryout
Parameter breaching
Safely in my blue box
Punching the clock
Time starts moving
Seconds removing
Going backwards
Against standards
They said
It couldn’t be done
But did I bet
And know I am gone
Back in time
Trying to find
…My future

The Good Old Times
In the good old times…
Everything was cheaper
The sky was much bluer
The summers were longer
The winters were colder
The children played nicer
The women were prettier
The men more handsome
The songs were chansons
The television shows were better
Complaints were written in letters
The world was wider
Everyone drank cider
And over all…
Everyone had more fun
In the good old times!

What rhymes with orange?
A sunset, of a different kind
Only this short homage
Was for it today assigned

FIVE:
Perky little red thing
Makes you want to sing
It thought it was the king
But found out with a sting
It was just a fling

FOUR:
On the bare black branches
Which leaves have now neglected
The last evening light reflected
As the sun slowly dances
Into the night’s darkness
