“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched – they must be felt with the heart” Helen Keller

Athens, Acropolis

Basking in the sun
Athens, Acropolis
A place of fun
A place of knowledge

Climbing up the mountain
Looking for the fountain
Of wisdom and history
Shrouded in mystery

Walking in the footsteps
Of the ancient Greeks
But, watch your steps
On the narrow streets

Once reaching the top
The effort but one hop
The view of awe and beauty
You know it really was your duty

“Travel becomes a strategy for accumulating photographs” Susan Sontag

Mallorca

Palma Nova
The sweetest Rosa
Of the island Mallorca

Welcomes
The weary traveler
A world’s passenger

Come
And take a load off
Forget all that scoff
Enjoy the sunny beach
Watch the waves breach

Colourful and vibrant
Like a water hydrant
The little village by the sea
No better place to be

Tallinn, Estonia 

7-a

For a renaissance fair
You need proper attire to wear
Don’t get in a despair
If you cannot fix your hair
Just put on a red dress
And you will be quite the success
Without too much stress!

Charioteer of Delphi

Charioteer

The boy with a chariot
With a look so serious
Horses as beasts of burden
He may be a rich man’s servant
But driving with fervency
Loving his chariot passionately

A Quick Trip to Paris

Doorways to the hidden secrets
Gates leading us to new fates
Stairways going up and down
Secret underpasses leading underground

This is Paris, the adventure
Try yourself non too much to censore
Just go with the flow and join the other dancers

A Quick Trip to Paris

Odds and ends in this city you will find
People, objects, art and places to unwind
Although, my trip very short and well timed


I will try to see it all and keep it in my mind
With my camera ready and aligned
Now it’s just a matter to step into the grind

A Quick Trip to Paris

Architecture from the past
Was made beyond us to last
Preserve them, before they’re trashed
And preserve history, for the masses


The modern versions made of glass
Bringing city wide contrast
Some colour into the mix splashed
Consider it artistic craft

A Quick Trip to Paris

Take a ride around the town
Many a choices for a vehicle can be found
A bike ride safe and most simple
But with a hot car, your face may get more dimples
Down under, there are many a wonder
When riding the public transit, in a metro most fancy
Or maybe you prefer a blast from the past
In a pink car oh so very fast

A Quick Trip to Paris

Oh, ye old Eiffel Tower
Yes, you got all the power
Standing by the Seine, looking at you for hours


You are this town’s prettiest flower
In your eternal light us will you shower
Looking at you, we’re never sour

A Quick Trip to Paris

The Arc de Triomphe
Certainly got that oomph
In the midst of Place de l’Etoile
Still standing strong and tall
The archaic Goliath
The biggest of the giants
For us tiny mortals to see
We have come to worship thee
