“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb

…And Ordinary Dwellings

It may be a drawing
A piece of street graffiti
But if you are ready for exploring
In the warmth of Tahiti
Give this little town a chance
Who knows, maybe a glance
Will turn into a permanent stance!

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb

…And Ordinary Dwellings


Houses, seemingly ordinary
But inside, quit extraordinary
Side by side, in the town square
A common history, do they all share
Equally basking, in the sun’s glare

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb

…And Ordinary Dwellings

Statues, trams and squares
A water fountain with stairs
It’s the centre of the city
By the waters ever so pretty
Therefore, nothing else compares!

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb

Capital Buildings…

The Helsinki Cathedral
Some could say a sequel
But for the city dwellers
This, is the best seller
And a building nothing will equal

“If a window of opportunity appears,
don’t pull down the shade”
Tom Peters

Windows

See through walls
Behind them windows
So many floors
Hard to know
Where the cool people go

Windows (four)

“If a window of opportunity appears,
don’t pull down the shade”
Tom Peters

Windows

Just a forgotten
And solitary window sill
With all kinds of
Knick-knacks filled

Windows (three)

“If a window of opportunity appears,
don’t pull down the shade”
Tom Peters

Windows

Greyed out windows
Grey painted walls
Where ever the wind blows
The reflections fall

Windows (one)

“If a window of opportunity appears,
don’t pull down the shade”
Tom Peters

Windows

A tight squeeze
To the open freeze
Window frozen
Water frozen
Hurry, press the button
And, downward we go!

The Finnish Dream | one

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb

World Wide Wednesday in Finland

The Finnish Dream

A cottage on an island
Preferably on the highland
Still near or in the city
No running water nor electricity
Not another soul in sight
