Water’s Edge for The Daily Post

When standing on the edge
I made this solemn pledge
To dive in
Even if,
There would be ice thin
Luckily,
This September weather
Is a reminiscent of a soft feather
More so,
Than a rainy autumn
Boy,
Must the Forecast Gods feel dumb!

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

Early Morning

Morning, too early
Did not wake up even Shirley
Got to work, barely
Sea calming, a little pearly
Finally this girlie
Has waken!

Day Seven: “Big” — A Point of View

Today, let’s go big. Photograph something of massive size, inside or outside. Get creative with your shot: Capture all or just part of the subject. Place it in the foreground so it takes up the entire frame. Or shoot it from afar so it appears smaller — yet still prominent.

“We shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us” Winston Churchill

Possibly quite see through
Hardly qualified as a skyscraper
But with many a
Windows, doors and elevators
It’s easily a wannabe simulator

Manic Mundane Monday (TBT)

Posted in the Throwback Thursday weekly series
Poetry, photography, tales and things that nature!

“Monday is great if I can spend it in bed. I’m a man of simple pleasures, really” Arthur Darvill

Manic Mundane Monday

Just another Manic Monday
Certainly not my fun day
Back in the office again
Simply cannot explain
It just happens
Always after weekend
Leaving me baffled
I cannot help myself
And leaves me overwhelmed
I just end up here
In this stratosphere
Called work

“Like a balloon, and… something bad happens!” Fry, Futurama

Balloons 

Helium filled colourful balls of fun
Competing against the glowing sun
Everyone will soon be hypnotized
As balloons of all shapes and size
High up in the air start rising

Balloons 

It’s the time for the annual fare
Be careful or you might scare
Soon gaping people on the ground will stare
Kids chasing them like they just don’t care
Going as far as anyone could dare…
