Kiosk Cafe for Seat Sunday
There’s time to spare
And a cup of coffee to share
In the little cafe
By the Esplanade

Kiosk Cafe for Seat Sunday
Opening the archives
Storing away the files
Of possible tales
For later to be shared
In a little cafe

Kiosk Cafe for Seat Sunday
Making a play
From my hideaway
People watching
A glimpse of their lives
Here and there catching
In the little cafe

Rain or shine
Seated just fine
In a little cafe

Windows
A window to nowhere
Separating this and elsewhere
If the window is opened wide
Will the two worlds, collide?

Uspenski Cathedral
If all we would need
Was a hail storm
For people to reform
And all our differences
To exceed…
One can only dream
And maybe one day
It will become real
But for today
It’s only preserved
In a picture frame

Up Up Up
“Hey!
Look up!
I think we’re in Canada now!”
“Oh Canada…”
“Wait, stop singing!
It’s just Helsinki
There’s still lots of swimming:
Hope we won’t be sinking,
And reach Canada!”

Tram Ride
The sign promised
A low sugar tram ride
But to be really honest
It was just an ad on the side
Anyway, since you got in it
Enjoy the narrow and wide
City of mine

Top of the World
“Standing tall
On top of the world
Let my voice be heard
At least, until I fall”
“Ok,
So maybe not the world
Just a tiny country
Or a smaller city
Somewhat nitty-gritty
But anyways,
I am the queen
Hear me roar?”
“Yeah, right!”

Shopping
“Shop,
Until you drop!
Or until you kidney stone will pop
There is no stop”
Or at least until
Your money runs out!
