August Rain
The light droplets of rain
Falling onto the open plane
The air cool and crisp
The wind but a wisp
The nature lush and green
Everything new and clean

August Nature, Photography and Poetry
Photography and Poetry
“August brings into sharp focus and a furious boil everything I’ve been listening to in the late spring and summer” Henry Rollins
August Nature
The last warm days
Before the cold rains
It is time to prepare
But do not despair
Summer may be ending
The nature surely changing
Soon it will be autumn
But the colours
Will be awesome

A Winter’s Tale
When stepping outside
Much to surprise
A freezing wind
Is greeting your skin
Rubbing your eyes
Hoping, only lies
But, waking to reality
Accepting the actuality
A cover of white
May be a delight
After the lush of green
You have seen
All summer long
Trying to stay strong
It’s here to stay
Pushing away
The slowly creeping
Sinking feeling
Don’t get bitter
It’s only winter

“Nothing but blue skies from now on…”
Blue Skies
Today
A display
Up in the sky
I saw the light
Shining so bright
Feeling high
A big smile
On my face
In this place
Where bliss
Exists
Today

Sky’s Gray Shroud
Photography and Poetry
“Gray skies are just clouds passing over” Duke Ellington
Sky’s Gray Shroud
Up up high
Grayness, filling the sky
Wrapping it tight
Dark as night
Into a shroud
Filled with clouds

Picnic in July, Finnish style
Poetry and Photography
“In the bible it rained for 40 days and 40 nights. They called it disaster. In Finland we call it summer!”
Picnic in July, Finnish style
Going on a picnic
Come snow, hail or shine
After all, it is still July
Hoping not to get sick
Sitting on the beach
Shivering with cold
The warmth at arms reach
It’s summer I was told
Not time for mission abort
Should not have worn shorts
The rain soon falls
Drops like thick walls
Clothes getting wetter
Running to shelter
Looking for a hide
Getting inside
Cold and wet
And unfed
Cursing and swearing
Of this life unfairing
Looking outside again
Hoping no more rain
What the f…k?
The sun is back up!

Sunrays

“The sun is new each day” Heraclitus
Sunrays
Trying to catch a glimpse
Of the last sun sparkles
Before they shrink
Into complete darkness
