Around the World in Black and White (one)

“I see that it is by no means useless to travel,
if a man wants to see something new”
Jules Verne

Around the World in Black and White 

In the rain forest of Brazil
You can feel the thrill
Sailing down the river Negro
Quite the incognito
Catch a glimpse of the dolphins
Can rise the endorphins

“I see that it is by no means useless to travel,
if a man wants to see something new”
Jules Verne

Around the World in Black and White 

Planning on staying a while
On the beautiful isle
That of Cyprus
Home to many a cypress
The surrounding seas of turquoise
Swimming around like the tortoise

After the Storm

“After a storm comes a calm”
Matthew Henry

After the Storm

After the storm
Everything is calm
Surrounded by silence
When roaming the island
Not a soul in sight
A sole bird in flight
The scent of nature
The intoxicating mixture
Enhanced by rain
Hard to restrain
My rejoicement

“I see that it is by no means useless to travel,
if a man wants to see something new”
Jules Verne

Around the World in Black and White 

Enjoying the island life
Dancing to a flute or a fife
Whether a history buff
Or a hang loose beach bum
Rhodes is the place enough
To make you wanna hum

Reflecting five

“Without deep reflection
one knows from daily life
that one exists for other people”
Albert Einstein

Reflecting

A tall glass building
May reflect a life gilded
But, it may be for show off or filming
Not something, to live in

Reflecting one

“Without deep reflection
one knows from daily life
that one exists for other people”
Albert Einstein

Reflecting

The water, reflecting
My thoughts, collecting
To the future, directing
My life, connecting

Reflecting four

“Without deep reflection
one knows from daily life
that one exists for other people”
Albert Einstein

Reflecting

A muddy water puddle
May reflect, a self image more subtle
Maybe even elicit a chuckle

Reflecting two

Posted in the Daily Post: Reflecting

“Without deep reflection
one knows from daily life
that one exists for other people”
Albert Einstein

Reflecting

Rainfall, on the leaves
Gently, in the wind heave
Reflecting, an image perceived
Nature, trying to deceive
Is it really summer, or winter’s eve?

Reflecting three

“Without deep reflection
one knows from daily life
that one exists for other people”
Albert Einstein

Reflecting

Suburban windows on fire
Reflecting, nature’s dire
Soon, the night will fall
Trying, this moment to stall
The gorgeous display admire
Until, the sun has retired

Reflecting six

“Without deep reflection
one knows from daily life
that one exists for other people”
Albert Einstein

Reflecting

Reflecting cool blue waters
Reflecting blue cloudy skies
An image without borders
A life simple without lies
