On the Left Wing Side, Part Three

A few moments standing
Preparing for landing
On the speaker out loud
A soothing voice to the crowd:

“Thank you for flying Finnair
Enjoy your stay and
Please come again”

“Traveling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” – Ibn Battuta

PART THREE

A land filled with rocks and lava
Taking it easy with a cup of java
Especially since it’s as hot as a sauna
But still, this is almost complete nirvana

“The very fact of snow is such an amazement.” Roger Ebert

Snow and then some! (Part Three)

In front of me
A most gorgeous display
Sunshine, on a snowy day
The waters frozen
Feeling brazen
A thought quite attempting
The opportunity presenting
A walkabout upon the lake

Snow, Part Three

Close to night fall
The sun about to set
The moon coming out
Time for a nap
Before the next day
Begins

“All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware” Martin Buber

World Wide Wednesday Presents: London, Part Three

“The Natural History Museum in London is a museum exhibiting a vast range of specimens from various segments of natural history”

If you are in doubt
Then go and check out
Visit the place of history
And follow the whole story
Of where we came from

World Wide Wednesday Presents: Rhodes Island, Part Four

Rhodes Island, Greece
A small piece
Of our history
Beyond the centuries
The old town
Considered the crown
The beach
At your reach
Ixia, Kamiros or Lindos
A small drive with the bus
Everything you need
On the small island of Greece

“You can be the moon and still be jealous of the stars” Gary Allan

Early Morning Sunrise with Crescent Moon, Daily Photo 2015-12-07, Part Three

The storms have finally passed
The moon its light trying to cast
The sun pushing its way with a blast
Daylight waving its flag in the mast
Oh how I wish this forever could last
But only for a passing moment
Then it’s all over way too fast
Darkness has covered the skies alas

Bright in the night
