Conqueror
Top of the world ma!
Or at least a street turtle
I go this far
So bring on the hurdles
I may be quite small
But I will conquer them all

Sleepy
The working day is done
I had lots and lots of fun
In my eyes I got sleeping sand
Time to travel to La-La land
Before the morning calls
I wish,
A good night to you all

I am well rested
Ready to be tested
For my guardedly duties
Like a true snoopy
I am alert

“Let us not take ourselves too seriously. None of us has a monopoly on wisdom” Queen Elizabeth II
Happy Birthday, Queen Elizabeth II
Who would have thought
Of being in the same job
For some sixty three years
– Surely worth some cheers
You’re part of the folk
Even cracked a few jokes
You got street smarts
And certainly won our hearts
Pink, purple or blue
To name but a few
The colours like your spirit
Would inspire many lyrics
Wishes for
Many more
Years of reign
Hear our hail:
Long Live the Queen,
And surely and sincerely
A very happy 92nd birthday!

Life is a Boxing Match (tbt)
Posted in Throwback Thursday
“Boxing is real easy. Life is much harder” Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Boxing Match
The gloves are on
The arena awaits you
From the illusion of winning
Your head is spinning
The chanting getting louder
You’re feeling prouder
The plan was a clean fight
No hitting below the belt
The deal fitting your own self
No more time for flight
The crowd is cheering
You are leering
At the ding of the gong
The fight is on
Dancing around
Pulling punches
No one going down
The referee announces
No one is winning
It is time
To up the ante
The gloves come off
The game now on
You start to scoff
Your mind’s set only on the con
Spitting out words of slander
Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander
Hair being torn
Nails like thorns
Feeling the scorn
Scratching, screaming
Ending only in
Real blood and tearing
No one is winning
It is time
For plan C

A Quick Trip to Paris seven

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

Thoughts for Quote a Week Tuesday
People often ask me what kind of camera I use. I must confess, after being a pix snapper for forty years, I have come to the conclusion, that the camera does not make the shot, I do. I used to drag all sorts of equipment with me even on travels, but since the advent of the digital format, I prefer to carry the smallest one with me, or just the mobile phone.
Of course there are advantages to SLR and various lens options, but then again, I rarely get the opportunity to just spend my time pic snapping anymore and when the opportunity for a great shot arises, I don’t care what camera I have with me, as long as I get the shot.
There are those who disagree with me and I agree not all of the snaps turn out as I imagined, but for me personally, the idea is more important than technical perfection. An image can be perfect in all ways, but still have no content. Even an out of focus image with a great vision, can be perfect. And in the end, if you yourself like it, then it is great!
Meanwhile, I think we can all agree on Chase Jarvis’ quote:
“The best camera is the one you have with you”

Almost Art for Mundane Monday
Posted in Mundane Monday
I think you can find all the elements that you can find in great literature in mundane experiences” Harvey Pekar
Almost Art
It’s off the chart
A piece of objet d’art
Looks kind of smart
Add it to your cart
If you have a heart
And a complimentary tart
Will give you a jump-start
For no one can tear it apart
Because it’s almost a work of art
