Just An Other Dark Day (one)

“The sky may fall on our heads tomorrow”

Just An Other Dark Day 

Early morning
Dark skies
The wind howling
The rain pours

Just an other morning
In the month of December

“The sky may fall on our heads tomorrow”

Just An Other Dark Day 

But,
Just look out!
Something happens
A single white flake
Then an other
Could it be…
Snowing?

“The sky may fall on our heads tomorrow”

Just An Other Dark Day 

More darkness to follow
Life empty and hollow
Through the window
The outside world
Only but a blur

“The sky may fall on our heads tomorrow”

Just An Other Dark Day 

Lightness surrounding
From the skies to the ground
Happy thoughts, clear mind
Nothing more need I find

On just an other December Day

Lyrics from lyricstranslate.com

Our Land

Oh Our Land Finland Fatherland
Echo Loudly Golden Word
No Valley No Hill
No Water Shore More Dear
Than This Northern Homeland
This Precious Land Of Our Fathers
No Valley No Hill
No Water Shore More Dear
Than This Northern Homeland
This Precious Land Of Our Fathers
One Day From Your Bud
You Will Bloom
From Our Love Shall Rise
Your Hope Glorious Joy
And Once Your Song Fatherland
Higher Still Will Ring
From Our Love Shall Rise
Your Hope Glorious Joy
And Once Your Song Fatherland
Higher Still Will Ring

Sunset Monday for Daily Photo (six)

“I always say that the times in my life
when I’ve been happiest are the times
when I’ve seen, like, a sunset”
Chris Evans

Sunset Monday 

Nightfall
The great Sol
Has left the horizon

“I always say that the times in my life
when I’ve been happiest are the times
when I’ve seen, like, a sunset”
Chris Evans

Sunset Monday 

Almost gone
Relinquishing its throne
Leaving us in the dark alone
Before rising again,
Tomorrow

“I always say that the times in my life
when I’ve been happiest are the times
when I’ve seen, like, a sunset”
Chris Evans

Sunset Monday 

Suburban skies on fire
the flames growing ever higher
Before it was time, to retire

“I always say that the times in my life
when I’ve been happiest are the times
when I’ve seen, like, a sunset”
Chris Evans

Sunset Monday 

For a while it shone
Before it was gone
Painting the sky red
Before going,
Into its watery bed

“I always say that the times in my life
when I’ve been happiest are the times
when I’ve seen, like, a sunset”
Chris Evans

Sunset Monday 

White fluffy clouds
Where there used to be grey skies
Now, the sun shines
Must be, a sign of the times!
