Mundane Monday
“Who can say what astonishments are hidden inside the most mundane being?”
Kate DiCamillo
Closed Gates
“What can be found,
behind door number two?”
Surely a question,
Answered only for a few

Mundane Monday
“To bring the sublime into the mundane is the greatest challenge there is.”
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Chocolate bars on a Rainy Day
When it rains and pours,
Thunderstorm with lightning
Can be very frightening
All the outside flickering
Windy draught, from all doors
Better not stand there shivering
Get under the covers
Think, what wonders you can discover
In a big, big chocolate bar!

Windows
A window to nowhere
Separating this and elsewhere
If the window is opened wide
Will the two worlds, collide?

Uspenski Cathedral
If all we would need
Was a hail storm
For people to reform
And all our differences
To exceed…
One can only dream
And maybe one day
It will become real
But for today
It’s only preserved
In a picture frame

Up Up Up
“Hey!
Look up!
I think we’re in Canada now!”
“Oh Canada…”
“Wait, stop singing!
It’s just Helsinki
There’s still lots of swimming:
Hope we won’t be sinking,
And reach Canada!”

Tram Ride
The sign promised
A low sugar tram ride
But to be really honest
It was just an ad on the side
Anyway, since you got in it
Enjoy the narrow and wide
City of mine

Top of the World
“Standing tall
On top of the world
Let my voice be heard
At least, until I fall”
“Ok,
So maybe not the world
Just a tiny country
Or a smaller city
Somewhat nitty-gritty
But anyways,
I am the queen
Hear me roar?”
“Yeah, right!”

Shopping
“Shop,
Until you drop!
Or until you kidney stone will pop
There is no stop”
Or at least until
Your money runs out!

Orange
What rhymes with orange?
Maybe try some porridge?
Possibly and then some!
To the market place
You should come!
