Mundane Monday

“Who can say what astonishments are hidden inside the most mundane being?”

Colour Coordination

If you want to make a statement
You need to be colour coordinated
Dressed in matching outfits
With all of your surroundings

Mundane Monday

“Who can say what astonishments are hidden inside the most mundane being?”

Apples

apples-1

“How about them apples, then?”
Asked Sven

Sinking his teeth into one
He knew he had just won

“I’ll give this a full ten!”

Mayweeds

The flowerbeds’ seed
Looks like weed
But, pretty indeed
Let’s call them
Mayweeds
Even, if it’s summer!

Mushrooms

mushrooms-1

Look what the rain brought:
Mushrooms, and not store bought
Popping up from the ground
Making a squishing sound
And waiting to be found

Closed Gates

“What can be found,
behind door number two?”
Surely a question,
Answered only for a few

Day Four: “Natural World” — Leading Lines

* A good photographer is a constant observer. Out in nature, we have opportunities to watch and study a scene, from big, sweeping changes — like the sky at dusk — to the tiniest details.

Purple Lines

Purple and wavy
Nothing too racy
Surely not a daisy
Just another pretty flower

Silver Lining

They say
“Every cloud
Has a silver lining”

Looking up to the sky
What do I find?
Fluffy white clouds
With fluffy white lines

Developing Your Eye, Day Four_ “Bliss”

* What is your idea of bliss? Is it an image of your family, laughing at the dinner table? A state of total relaxation, while lying on the beach? Your latest painting, drying on the canvas

“Coffee: The finest organic suspension ever devised”

Another cup of Coffee? (WP: Developing Your Eye I)

“Dear, another cup of coffee for you?”

“Oh yes please,
I could never refuse
Such an offer!”

Happy Birthday Nephew! for SL-Week 51: Two

Happy Birthday Nephew! for SL-Week 51

“Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday dear Jim
Happy birthday to you.”

The Birthday Boy

“Dig into the cake son”
The father urged
His head turned
As the birthday boy
Was about to enjoy
The much deserved treat
Which was definitely not meat
But a juicy summer’s strawberry tart
Made by mom, straight from the heart

The Cake

The aroma of the strawberry cake
We all knew, that was not a fake
It was all done for the sake
Of the birthday celebration on this date
