“There’s nowhere else like London. Nothing at all, anywhere” Vivienne Westwood

World Wide Wednesday in London 

Going out for Fish and Chips
Maybe viewing a solar eclipse
Or shopping for model toys
Even looking for the real McCoys
London is the place to be
With so many things to see
After a busy day on the streets
Walking, biking or on the bus
Step into the local pub
Lift up your feet
Relax without a fight
And enjoy the night

A Winter’s Tale (TBT)

Posted in the Throwback Thursday weekly series
Poetry, photography, tales and things that nature!

“Winter is coming” George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones

A Winter’s Tale

When stepping outside
Much to surprise
A freezing wind
Is greeting your skin
Rubbing your eyes
Hoping, only lies
But, waking to reality
Accepting the actuality
A cover of white
May be a delight
After the lush of green
You have seen
All summer long
Trying to stay strong
It’s here to stay
Pushing away
The slowly creeping
Sinking feeling
Don’t get bitter
It’s only winter

“A bachelor’s life is a fine breakfast, a flat lunch, and a miserable dinner” Francis Bacon

Dinner Time (The Daily Post) 

Food is good
Food is great
Especially of a nice taste
Do enjoy
Have a feast
But not in a haste
And nothing waste

Ladies and Gentlemen
Dinner, is served!

Yellow Little Things of Spring (Daily Photo) 

Something very weird:
Snow has but disappeared
Warm breeze passes in the air
Without warm clothing able to fare

What is this peculiar feeling
Do I need to fear?

But no problem!
It’s spring time, which is finally here!

“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water” Rabindranath Tagore

7 Days of Nature Photo Challenge: Day One: On the Rocks

Against the smoothed rocks
Is the water happily splashing
High in the air go flying my crocks
When I’m barefoot in the sand dashing

Close to the water’s edge
I once again my allegiance pledge
Wowing, this year my toe to dip
Even if it means biting the lip

Come high hell or cold water
Because it may never get hotter
In the ocean I will swim
Even if my eyesight will dim

After all, it is Spring Time!

Am I seeing double?
Does it mean I am in trouble?
Houston, this is Hubble,
We seem to be in trouble!
