Last Day of Summer for Daily Photo

Last day of Summer
Oh, what a bummer
Next stop, Autumn
Not so much fun

Beginning of September
Nothing, to remember

Or maybe, just maybe
The season of rainy
Can be fun,
After all?

“August, the summer’s last messenger of misery, is a hollow actor” Henry Rollins

Rosehip

Lush and pink
Totally in sync
The little rose
In a pose
Hidden
In the green leaves
In August’s eve

Voice

“Can you hear my voice?”
It asked

“Listen to my voice”
It continued

“Walk towards my voice”
It beckoned

Finally, standing there in front of the wall, with a can of spray in my hand, I had made my statement

“I hear a voice”

Scary Door

Be on the look out
You never know where it lies
The way to…
… A scary door!

Ride a Bike

Ride a bike
Take a hike
Watch out for spikes
As your vehicle they can strike
Stay out of fights
Other wise
Do what you like
So go
Ride a bike

Ripples on the Water

ripples 1

Soon, September comes with sniffles
Thought of that gives me wrinkles
Looking at the water’s surface filled with ripples
As it smiles with all its dimples
Life in August, smooth and simple
And today, is Friday, so just whistle

August Days in Espoo for Daily Photo

“August brings into sharp focus and a furious boil everything I’ve been listening to in the late spring and summer” Henry Rollins

Peeing Verboten

“Pee, pee, pee”
The lady told Fifi

As the little dog his leg
Lifted up and instead
Of heading the warning
It was too early a morning

And so, the little pine tree
Had gotten its fee
Yellow liquid coating
All over was floating

“What a nice decor,
Guess I just scored!”

Smoke in the Sky

“I will huff and puff
Blow smoke until there is enough”
The little pipe scoffed
And blew more smoke
Up into the air

Yellowish

In the August days mellow
Wild flowers of yellow
Growing strong by the curve
So watch carefully where you swerve!

Red

“I see red”
Said Ted
As toward the shed
Painted red
He quickly fled

Unfortunately
A fence,
Also, painted red
Made his trek
Short instead
