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

“Nothing burns like the cold.” George R.R. Martin

Frosted Forest

The snow was slowly floating
The trees with a powdery white cloaking
Like a sugar candy coating
As Mother Nature watched gloating

“Look how pretty I made it!
I don’t care one shit,
If the humans don’t see the fit.

It’s pretty and clean,
Most gorgeous thing they ever seen!

So what if it is freezing cold
And the ever rising wind blows!
Better suck it and enjoy,
For this, is my utter ploy!”

And so the little minions of Earth
Went forth in both fear or mirth
After all, how long could it be before the birth
Of summer

Hide and seek

When playing the game
Of hide and seek
To hide one’s true name
Takes a lot of effort and technique

Hiding in plain sight
In the revealing daylight
A game only for the smart
As played for the art

Harmony: Winter (The Daily Post)

The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Harmony

Winter

“Art is a harmony parallel with nature” Paul Cezanne

Winter

Cold, white and monochrome
Nature silent under the snowy dome
But, when the sun paints a triple rainbow
The beauty will bring you to an awe

Summer

In the cooling summer breeze
All the wild flowers will breathe
Until it is time, for the winter’s freeze
