Autumn Foliage
The colours are of plenty
The wind cooling gently
Nature filled with changes
Much like the turning of pages

Part One: Summer
“Oh, the summer night, Has a smile of light, And she sits on a sapphire throne” Bryan Procter
Summer
The colours lush and green
No rain nor snow was seen
On a warm summer’s night
Both stars and skies were bright

Even wishes
If you do believe
The Daily Post Photo challenge: Ornate
Forget about subdued and restrained. This week, let’s embrace the breathtakingly extravagant.
“A lot of designs are grounded in history even though they tend to be clean and not overly ornate. The sculptural form is often historic. If you come to our exhibit, a lot of things will look familiar” Ellen Lupton
Ornate, The Natural History Museum of London
A building
Filled with beauty and history
A home to many a -logy
Botany, entomology, mineralogy
Paleontology and zoology
You may bump into a dinosaur
But don’t worry, it will not roar
Explore the various galleries
Where many of Earth’s memories
Are housed
Public engagement and education
Plenty of research and curation
The Darwin centre with specimen
The Attenborough Studio for conservation
Plenty to choose from
The Daily Post photo challenge: Treat
“Absolutely eat dessert first. The thing that you want to do the most, do that”
Joss Whedon
THE DAILY POST; TREAT
Middle of the day, a lunch date, a little treat
Nothing fancy, it seemed, at first glance
Pancakes, strawberries and whipped cream
But soon enough, the treat made me dance

“I never considered myself a lucky person. I’m the most extraordinary pessimist. I truly am”
Christopher Nolan
The Daily Post: (Extra)ordinary Part Three
The days are getting shorter
Reflections on the water
The last of the reminders
Of the times much kinder
The games of summer played
The tanned skin to rest laid
Tall shadows now displayed
Soon enough will fade
Because,
When in October
The cold shoulder
Of winter
Soon will reenter

“One machine can do the work of fifty ordinary men. No machine can do the work of one extraordinary man” Elbert Hubbard
The Daily Post: (Extra)ordinary Part Two
Just another ordinary day
A day at the office
Blue for the skies
Blue for the thoughts
Looking out the window
Weather getting brighter
Mood is getting lighter
No time to hesitate
Out for a quick break
Sunshine and cool weather
What could be better

“I don’t have to chase extraordinary moments to find happiness – it’s right in front of me if I’m paying attention and practicing gratitude” Brene Brown
The Daily Post: (Extra)ordinary Part One
Early morning
Misty weather
Softly adorning
Like a feather
The nature silent
Without movement
The early bird
Only to be heard
Nothing else
Breaks the silence
Of the morning mist

“I can’t imagine a day without coffee. I can’t imagine!” Howard Schultz
Monday with(out) Coffee
What is a Monday
But a slow day of Sunday
Without coffee
It’s just a faded copy
It’s just what you seek
So, don’t hesitate
Go ahead, start the week
With a fresh, clean slate
Make your way
To the coffee maker
For a while stay
After all,
You deserved a break
