Variations of a Theme for Daily Photo

“I think doing variations on a classical theme is a dangerous thing to do”
Tori Amos

Pinkiest of Shoes

Shoes shoes shoes
I see the pinkiest of shoes
They really do amuse
My bluest of blues
Do they really defuse…

Pinkiest of Shoes

…I just wonder who’s
Because I also want to choose
The pinkiest of shoes
Because this new mood
I do not want to loose

Wheels on the Bus

wheels-on-the-bus-1

Wheels on the bus
May be going around and around
And you can certainly trust
Them to be Earth bound
Carrying you every which way
And before you get to say “hey”
Your destination realized
Yes, you have already arrived

Neon Life

Photography and Poetry

“We see what we want”

Neon Life

Bright lights
Bright colours
Never night
Never duller
When life is
Such a bliss
And filled with
Neon colours

The Abstract and Bizarre

Photography and Poetry

“There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality” Pablo Picasso

The Abstract and Bizarre

How bizarre
Said the Tsar
When he looked into the jar
Filled with tar
His mouth ajar
He jumped into the car
Driving quite far
Steered by the North Star
To find a snack bar
Only to find Babar
Playing the guitar
While smoking a cigar
And watching Jafar
Striking under par

The abstract
Quite a concept
Maybe the next step
In the world wide web
Can I hear a yep, yep?
Or is it just hep
Or another misstep?

Photography: Double vision

“If I asked for a cup of coffee, someone would search for the double meaning” Mae West

Double Shots

Doing double shots
My eyesight soon a blur
Waiting for what might occur
Am I imagining things
Or is that really a bird with wings
Ancient tech
What the heck!
Mannequins of all shapes and sizes
Men in frocks
Or mummies in smocks
I need to cool down
And drive down town
Maybe just a dip in the pool
Make use of a communications tool
Invite some friends
Use my lens
And to snap a few more shots, double shots!
