Thursday for Daily Photo (one)

“This must be Thursday.
I never could get the hang of Thursdays.”
Douglas Adams

Thursday

Did you catch the last rays?
Did you see them fade away,
Into the night sky?
Did you wish you could fly?
If you are asking why,
Then, this must be Thursday!

Cathedral for Daily Photo

Posted in Daily Photo: Photography, Humour and Poetry

“Maimed but still magnificent…
Europe’s mightiest medieval cathedral”
R. W. Apple, Jr.

Cathedral for Daily Photo

What a piece of art!
Done by someone very smart
Or possibly straight from the heart

The ‘ohs’ and ‘ahs’ over the chart
Can be heard from here to St Barts
Someone tried the work bogart
But the artist said, “never could I part”

So, luckily for our viewing pleasure
We can now admire this permanent treasure
In our place of worship in our leisure

Sankta Lucia

Posted in Celebration National Day

“Night walks with a heavy step
Round yard and hearth,
As the sun departs from earth,
Shadows are brooding.
There in our dark house,
Walking with lit candles,
Santa Lucia, Santa Lucia”

lucia-1899

Sankta Lucia

The bearer of light
For the future to shine bright
With all her might
Like the shining white knight
Her sword will smite
All the anger and spite
The world to rewrite
Without war or fight
Sankta Lucia

Shopping Mall Deer, Part Two, Going Cartoon

Posted in Daily Photo: Photography, Humour, Tune and Poetry

“Win or lose,
we go shopping after the election”
Imelda Marcos

Shopping Mall Deer, Part Two, Going Cartoon

shopping-mall-deer-the-cartoon-1
I am Eddy,
The shopping mall reindeer
A big plastic piece of work
This side of the hemisphere

So did this little tune
And ended in a cartoon
Watch me now,
And don’t confuse me with a cow
As I am starring
With all you shoppers sparring

I am Eddy,
The shopping mall reindeer
A big plastic piece of work
This side of the hemisphere

Shopping Mall Deer 

I am Eddy,
The shopping mall reindeer

A big plastic piece of work
This side of the hemisphere
Some say, I am a little queer

But when they see me oh so very near
They say, after a few drunken beer
I am the prettiest thing this year
So come on closer and my song hear

For I am Eddy,
The shopping mall reindeer

The 3rd Advent (two)

Posted in Holiday Season:Tale, Poetry, Photography, Humour

“Maybe Christmas, the Grinch thought,
doesn’t come from a store”
Dr. Seuss

The 3rd Advent

…In the end
After some time spent
The agreement said

“You can have three days off
Provided, they are on a weekend
No more time to spend
On any celebration
Or there will be hell to bend!”

So now, if you listen closely
The celebration still goes on, but quietly
Under the bridges and behind closed doors
Some say, they even roast s’mores

Guess the lesson learnt
Is: do not get burnt
But celebrate you can
If you don’t give damn
Even if shit hits the fan!

“Maybe Christmas, the Grinch thought,
doesn’t come from a store”
Dr. Seuss

The 3rd Advent

At the tone of the bell’s ding
The celebrations are about to begin
Even the grumpiest of them all begins to sing
All the crowd begins to swing

Nothing will stop the celebration
So come along, bring your dalmatian
Let’s spread the cheer across the nation
So hop on the train before it leaves the station

But hold on to your horses
Says the person cautious
Before we can actually endorse this
We need to talk to our bosses

“And finally Winter,
with its bitin’, whinin’ wind,
and all the land will be mantled with snow”
Roy Bean

Then Snow Came

As it was pouring, when it rains
Yes, it was time, for this game!

“No this is not fake!
So just run for your lives
Before you get the wintery hives”
