Sunsets of January

Oh, happy January
Now we all can be merry
We are reassured
There will be light
You gave us your word
When showing the sunlight
Thanks January
Now we don’t have to worry
Or live in fear
Of the rest of the year

Sunsets of January

Sunsets are boring
Some might say, and end up snoring
But who can resist
The sky’s endless twists
Painting the clouds yellow, orange and red
Weaving a colourful web

Traffic Jam in January

Posted in Daily Photo

“Standing in the middle of the road is very dangerous;
you get knocked down by the traffic from both sides”
Margaret Thatcher

 

Traffic Jam in January

Drive, stop
Drive, stop
Drive, stop

Morning traffic shock
Cannot drive
Cannot walk

“This is much worse
Than Bangkok!”

Where are we?
In little Finn town
On a route, ever so fine
Now under construction
It will be our destruction!

Drive, stop
Drive, stop
Drive, stop

Art Work

After the snow storm
The water’s edge has transformed
Into a picturesque tableau,
Oh, what a show!

Straight Lines

When in doubt
You can either shout
Or simply follow
The straight lines
Which nature defined
With a white snow cover
And today,
You don’t even need a shovel!

Lights in the Window (TBT)

“A lot of people like snow. I find it to be an unnecessary freezing of water.”
Carl Reiner

Lights in the Window

Colourful aren’t they?
Pretty too, wouldn’t you say?
Feeling kind of comfortable, are you?
Well, just follow the colorful hue
Step into our humble house
We may even have a mouse
Sit down, take a load off
A cup of hot
We’ll bring you on the dot

Snow Mummies (TBT)

Posted in Throwback Thursday

“A lot of people like snow. I find it to be an unnecessary freezing of water.”
Carl Reiner

Snow Mummies

Uncovered from the snow
In the dark night they glow
Small black stones for eyes
Only afraid of the sunrise
Melting their worst enemy
Cold weather the only remedy
Sitting pretty for now
Until the earth they will bow

Down the Hill

When ever there is snow on the ground
And a small mountain or a molehill found
The kids will arrive in flocks
Dragging their sleighs to the top
“Mommy, mommy, look at me!
Look how fast I am going!
Oops, look, there’s a tree!”

<Crash, bang, boing>

“Mommy, mommy, look no teeth!”
The kid only laughingly stated
As back up hill he ventured
If only to once more ride
Before getting his dentures
