Sunny Days (one)

“I do hope
that our spring
will be starting shortly
and we will all be able
to enjoy some sunshine
again”
Lesley Garrett

Sunny Days

Seaside is the place to be
As close as possible, to the sea
Sunshine and sailboats
Where ever which way
Your eyes float

Sunny Days

A house of dreams
Or so it seems
On the solemn island
But oh so close
To the main land

Time for shopping?
But of course
And we do until
We are dropping!
But,
Coffee first!

People of all Sorts

The lady with her dog
Was looking for a grog
The taxi had already gone
So she decided to sit on the log

The dude is a statue
He was quite the virtue
Now with a seagull
He seems a little dull

Because I did not want to
Climb the tallest mountain!

Market Square

“Fresh fish,
Get you fresh fish here,
Catch of today
On your plate won’t stay!”

“Sausages,
Fresh boiled sausages
Made from reindeer
Don’t worry dear
Rudolf not included!”

“I-iice cream,
Come and get some i-iice cream,
Cold and cooling
If you need the smoothing!”

What ever your heart may desire…

Well, then you’ve come to the wrong place
But we do like to cater to the buyer
In this old historic space

Harbour Area

A slow boat to Sweden
Or a catamaran to Tallinn
If you are looking for Eden
Well, maybe
But you better be all in!

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki

Little convertible
You are so flexible
And very transportable
But even still
The genuine article

A bike is a bike
Of course, of course!
