Mundane Monday: Falsified Self-image
Posted in Mundane Monday
“I now find magic in the mundane. I’m also more creative – better able to look beyond the obvious and come up with new story angles” Deborah Norville
Falsified Self-image
The shadow reflected
Not what I expected
Feeling disconnected
Somehow misrepresented
It has to be rejected
And quickly corrected
My true self resurrected
This image perfected

Over the Railing
Over the railing and
Into the water
Retorted Harry Potter
As he dove underwater
Mundane Monday: Dark Side of the Odd

“Welcome to the dark side”
Dark Side of the Odd
There in the corner it stood
Like something from the tales of the odd
Or maybe, it was just misunderstood
Mundane Monday: Now you see me, Now you don’t
Posted in Mundane Monday
“I would much rather have a life filled with magic than one filled with the mundane.”
― Debbie Viguié
Now you see me, Now you don’t
Don’ t blink
Because,
In an eye’s wink
You see her,
Then you don’t
Not a haunt
Not a stalker
It’s just Granny
With her walker
Daily Wheels for Mundane Monday
Posted in Mundane Monday
“Vroom, Vroom! Can I get more speed, please?”
Daily Wheels
Time for the bi-yearly service
So no need to be nervous
This is no major over haul
Just a quick ten minute call
A preparation before the snow fall
Also, because it is the law
And to be able to drive
Simply put, to stay alive 😉
Meanwhile, in the distance
Spotted something completely different
A train dashing by
Almost like it was on the fly
Because a vehicle of that calibre
Do not live by the calendar
Just keeping on the right track
Travelling every which way and back
Before my day was done
I bumped into something fun
A sporty looking vehicle
Did not seem too seasonal
But with the right kind of footwear
It too could be put into full gear
Choose some cool tunes on the radio
And ride along in the deep snow
Mundane Monday: Open Sesame
Posted in Mundane Monday
“I like to make the mundane fabulous whenever I can” Rufus Wainwright
“An homage to lifts/elevators everywhere”
Open Sesame
Abracadabra!
How well do you know your algebra?
It is as easy as one, two, three
Even before you can boot your PC
The carriage of comfort
Has lifted you upwards
Your destination dead ahead
Nothing more left to be said

“You don’t take a photograph, you make it.” Ansel Adams
Favourite Photo Friday
The highest tower
Like a tall flower
The setting sun deflecting
Last rays on metal reflecting
Silver, yellow and red
Nothing more to be said
This most gorgeous vision
Selection done by decision
For your viewing pleasure
So, do, value this treasure
Mundane Monday: High Voltage

“Creativity is piercing the mundane to find the marvelous” Bill Moyers
High Voltage
Danger, Danger, beware
Touch it if you dare
You may end up a flare
And into the white light stare
Mundane Monday: AC/DC
Posted in Mundane Monday
“I didn’t like mundane life” Jeanne Calment
AC/DC
Electric current
Quite transparent
Lost without it
The modern world
In chaos would hurl
In one big swirl
