“A society that gets rid of all its troublemakers goes downhill” Robert A. Heinlein

Down the Hill

downhill-7-1

When ever there is snow on the ground
And a small mountain or a molehill found
The kids will arrive in flocks
Dragging their sleighs to the top

“Mommy, mommy, look at me!
Look how fast I am going!
Oops, look, there’s a tree!”

<Crash, bang, boing>

“Mommy, mommy, look no teeth!”

The kid only laughingly stated
As back up hill he ventured
If only to once more ride
Before getting his dentures

Tracks

winter-morning_2

Early morning after snowfall
The snowy blanket filled with footfalls
The early birds got up for skiing
And down the snowy road now fleeing

Frost

Like the icing on a cake
Or a frozen yoghourt and a milkshake
The window filled with frosted flakes
Away your breath will take

I find it to be an unnecessary freezing of water.”

crossing

Crossing lines
There won’t be any fines
As long as you remain
Within the confines
Of the drawn lines

Odd structures
Built for the architecture
Or just for viewing pleasure?

Shopping mall
Don’t take that fall
Or you’ll end up in a stall
Full of clothes
You just bought

Footfalls
On the snowfall
Seemed quite tall
Watch out
For the down fall!

Roadside
No need to put out fires
The car has no winter tyres
Waiting for the bus
So, guess there is no fuss

Cozy window view
In winter’s interlude
If the other knew
This house
Would be crowded!

lights-2

Lights in the dark
May be caused by a spark
Of electricity
Running through the city
Now I am getting giddy
Of all this techno babble!
