“I never travel without my camera. One should always record ones steps if nothing else than for the future reference, especially during the days of change” Gun Roswell
London
Watching, over the rooftops
Looking for the hustle and bustle
Of the streets of London
And it seems, that in just a few hops
A few old and bold like castles
And perhaps a famous dungeon
Can be seen without much of an effort
So, just hop on a bus
Without too much fuss
For them all to experience…

London
… Never mind the sad or even the bad weather
As my skin is certainly made of thick kind of leather
A few raindrops will not be able to do any harm
And not even, a small rain filled storm
Will be able to keep me away
From this eternal, London type of a sway

London in Monochrome
Rain, rain, rain
But that dreaded and endless rain
Running down the very drain
But, around in the City of London
Without the feeling of any kind of boredom
As there are too many things to see
My little face, has finally lit up with a glee…
“That’s not a telephone box! That, is a Tardis from the tv show, you know the timer traveling doc one!” Gun Roswell
Phone home now, or call Dr Who!
The two archaic yet gorgeous monuments still standing tall, on the street corner there by that building available for the big and small, lasting us all. from the past till the very beyond…
Huh?
What’s it called?
A muu-seuum of sorts?
Maybe?
Yeah and those two glass boxes with a steel frame?
Right there in front?
Something I heard were used to cater to people making telephone calls around the very clock?
Those kind of retro thingies of sorts, you know insert a coin to phone home or then make it collect for mama to pay?
Well, heck no!
Those kind of boxes are props!
They are imaginary and used in movies or tv!
You see!?
It’s the exact same box, which that one Doc, you know the one on the famous tv show?
No?
What are you ignorant?
Everyone knows the Doctor.
Doctor Who.
Oh yeah!
In know that one, great show!
And I remember the box too.
But wasn’t it blue?
Whatever!
Red, blue, green!
You cannot make a call in one of those so forget about it!
“The monuments we create to depict the times we live in, hoping only they will last past our time” Gun Roswell
Monumental from various times
The chariots with its galant riders, now a silhouette slashing the darkening night skies
Built as an homage and a reminder of those heroes from our distant past surpassing time
As to whom those were depicted in the shadowy tale of this monumental tale so magnificent?
Well, that is something the historians may be able to tell you, that of their real significance
As for myself, the looks of it is simply striking and therefore it ended up on my very list of liking
The picture surely telling as trying, to fit into it the past and present without too much yelling
And as to the futuristic round circular thing, which now in the present day someone songs sing?
A wheel of fortune perhaps? Or maybe something more temporary, not really needed to last?
Whatever the purpose of this millennial round circle is, taking a ride on it and enjoying the scenes
Of the city where it now resides, is fine for at least now, and maybe later, if it lasts the passage of time
A few hundred years into our future, then someone might find it as fascinating as the chariot or then, simply comment it being just fine.
“Ain’t nuttin’ wrong with a wee bit if rain, to wash away all of them stinky stains, which all over remain, after, well everything” Gun Roswell
The rain and the blurry
The everyday people, on the streets scurry
Causing, the image take, to get really blurry
As not all of them, seem to be in such a hurry
Or then, it is simply, the ever falling rain
Making all the motions of everyone, exactly the same
Fusing into one and other, on the busy lanes
Causing all the pictures momentarily seen, to each other blend
But, there is no more time, on this specific scene to spend
Even if I would get an umbrella from someone as a lend
It would be impossible, to escape the downpour
The only option would be to pray for sunshine or something more
Alas, for now, the weather as is, even though a spot sore
Will have to do as the allotted time is of the essence
As in this place my current presence
Will need to be hauled out in a few more seconds
So, what ever needs to be captured, during this time
Whether the images blurry or then simply, just fineI have done the job I needed to do, to get by
And so, for now, I am outta here!

London
Over the rooftops
To the hustle and bustle
Of the streets of London
In just a few hops
A few old castles
And a famous dungeon
Hop on a bus
Without much fuss
Follow the lines
And you’ll be fine
Eyes wide open
Seeing more than hoping
In the evening
You are dreaming
Of how much more
The next day has in store
