“Oh, the summer night, Has a smile of light, And she sits on a sapphire throne” Bryan Procter

Summer

The colours lush and green
No rain nor snow was seen
On a warm summer’s night
Both stars and skies were bright

“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet” Napoleon Bonaparte

Sitting in Cyprus, Part Two

A single seat?
Or one designed for two?
In this heat
Who could want to be glued
To someone else’s skin
With clothes this thin

“Because it’s a seat”

Sitting in Cyprus, Part One

A stroll in the heat of summer
Looking for a place to recover
Taverns and restaurants beckoning
A cold drink for thirst lessening

“Share each Friday, on your own blog, one photo…or maybe even a gallery of some of your favorite photos that you have taken during the week, that make you smile or that was a great photo capturing opportunity…anything really! And as photographers are often known to say, “The best camera is, the one that you have with you!”

Favourite Photo Friday , 2015-11-27

For this week’s Favourite Photo of the week, I have chosen not one, but two from my Wednesday’s World Wide Wednesday series, which presented the city of Porvoo in colour in two parts.

Depicted is the beautiful river “Porvoonjoki” and the slow relaxed living during summer time in the old town of Porvoo, Finland.

Trio, Two

Good things
Do come in threes
A pretty red flower
In full bloom
In the middle of
Winter’s cold

A pretty flower
Even wishes
If you do believe

Contrasts, Two

Enjoyed the fall
On many a stroll
At the door
Winter is knocking
With white
Everything blocking

Contrasts, One

Black on blue
The Autumn is due
For turning of Winter
Like a splinter
In your index finger…

Tired Tuesday?
Keeping darkness at bay

Light snow in the early morning hours
Maybe later some hail and rain showers
