World Wide Wednesday in Finland

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb

Seaside

A fly by
On the port side
As we wave “bye bye”
And sail away
Before we turn
Old and grey
But sooner or later
Into this place
We might yearn

The lesson learned?
You can always return!

World Wide Wednesday in Finland

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb

Seaside

This, is the scenery
Which is, greeting thee
As thee arrive
And into, the port glide

May Day, May Day!

“Today, in the May Day,
find a worker and shake his hand with gratitude!
Without workers, no civilization could be built!”
― Mehmet Murat Ildan

May Day, May Day!

“May Day! May Day!”
The clock blared
As the alarm went off
I woke up with a scoff
“What the F…!”
As this, was supposed to be my day off!

Clearing my throat, with a cough
I quickly got up, in a huff and a puff
Waking, this early in the morning, was tough

I looked at the clock on the wall
Figuring some way, to stall
But the only option, was my ass outside to haul

First view from the window
Did my foggy mind blow
As I rubbed my eyes, little did I know
The only thing I would see, was more snow

What the hell was going on?
I thought May was summer’s dawn
But this plan has one big flaw
The winter has raised its ugly claw

It must have been because of the weather
My alarm clock had made this error
Waking me up early, knowing
I only, could this task endeavour

So now, it was up to me
The land and air rid of the freeze
To bring forth the sunshine and warm breeze
Just had to figure out, how this task to seize!

If I only had powers of magic
I would just pull out some gimmick
But unfortunately, my witchery has a limit

So, for now, I just taped on an image
Onto the window with a view quite idyllic
A summery green meadow,
The warmer weathers to mimic

Last Of Snow Days?

Frozen in a formation
The leaves hibernating
Awaiting
Awaking
The transformation
Soon at hand

In spring, I move”

Last Of Snow Days?

Heavy on the branches
The snow masses heave
According to calendar
It would be their time to leave
But what are the chances?

Last Of Snow?

Through thick and thin
The winter surviving
In the snowy cover
Together they hover

Last Of Snow Days?

Lurking, hiding
Trying to fit in
The little lamp post
Who almost

“In winter, I plot and plan.
In spring, I move”
Henry Rollins

Last Of Snow Days?

A winter scene
Quite serene
All in white
Black and white
What is missing?
Maybe,
A touch of green?

Henry Rollins

Last Of Snow?

“Through the woods and into Grandmother’s house we go,
Walking is very, very, slow,
Oh, there is so much snow!
The hard wind blows,
Cheeks are starting to glow,
In the colour, of a tomato,
But toe, to toe
We all step in a row,
Wishing soon, to be in front of a stow!”
