“Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.” – Andre Gide
Odds and Ends
Objet d’art
Or something smart
On the odds and ends
Our time we spend
Without our creature comforts
We might be up the rafters

Take a Load off
A bench of stone, wood or wire
Can get you out of the dire
When feeling spent and tired
Take a load off and enjoy the fire

Feathered Friends
Our feathered friends
The windy air bend
Flying to the world’s end
For their leisure time to spend

The Moonlight Sky
From tiniest of crescent
To fullest of size
Each time a present
But never a surprise

Vehicles of Various Kinds: Two
They are motorized
Some may even tantalize
All vehicles great and small
Some faster, some crawl
Dented or ship shape
You cannot escape
Stopping and glaring
With nostrils flaring
“I want one!”

With nostrils flaring
“I want one!”
…And the odd one out!

MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE #45
“Mondays are mundane, like Tuesdays minus 24 hours. ”
Electric
Bright, colourful, electric
In this home of eccentrics
Is it just a piece of technic
Or something quite poetic?

“When in Vienna, sit on a comfy sofa”
On a Sofa in Vienna (Seat Sunday 2016-02-07)
When weary from your travels
And the day slowly starts to unravel
Better answer to the beckoning
When to its seat it is welcoming
At this hour it surely is permitted
A true respit for the wicked
Feeling beat
Take a seat
It has your number
Fall into a slumber
In the bosom
Of the softest of cushions
And have a good night’s sleep

Travel to… Vienna
“A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving” Lao Tzu
On the Left Wing Side, Part Three
A few moments standing
Preparing for landing
On the speaker out loud
A soothing voice to the crowd:
“Thank you for flying Finnair
Enjoy your stay and
Please come again”
