“Oh, don’t let’s ask for the moon. We’ve already got the stars” Bette Davis
December Moon, Part Two
“Look, the moon boss, the moon!”
December moon
You came so soon
Where did you go?
We were looking for you
Already a month ago
Here you are
Shining bright
Did you go far?
Never mind,
You are always
Such a delight!

Part Two: Autumn Foliage
“Summer ends, and Autumn comes, and he who would have it otherwise would have high tide always and a full moon every night” Hal Borland
Autumn Foliage
The colours are of plenty
The wind cooling gently
Nature filled with changes
Much like the turning of pages

(Sunday 29-11-2015)
“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet” Napoleon Bonaparte
Sitting in Cyprus, Part Two
A single seat?
Or one designed for two?
In this heat
Who could want to be glued
To someone else’s skin
With clothes this thin
PART TWO:
Writing 101, Day Twenty: Wrap it up
“It’s always hard to wrap up a series. The longer I spend with the characters, the more they become like friends” Rick Riordan
Writing 101: All Wrapped Up
* What did you enjoy or dislike?
* Describe a day, assignment, or Commons exchange in which you experienced an “aha!” moment.
* In December, I plan to . . .
* 5, 10, 20 years from now
* What did you enjoy or dislike?
I plead the fifth on this particular question:P
We all have our different point of views to writing and blogging, what is fun or interesting to another blogger, may not be “all that” for someone else. All and all, I posted something each day, even though it might not have been right on the topic 😉
“Never give up, never surrender, full speed ahead!”
* Describe a day, assignment, or Commons exchange in which you experienced an “aha!” moment.
For me personally, every day is an “aha!” moment day. Ideas can be found in music, news, books and yes, even television. Of course given a direct prompt is even better!
* In December…
I plan to take three more courses for WordPress Blogging University. I have already registered for the open courses. That being said, I also plan to go on a one week trip and possibly run another set of Travel blog posts. The other option is to just lay by the pool and close my laptop all together!
* 5, 10, 20 years from now?
Bollywood or Hollywood, which ever comes first 😉 Seriously though, despite my long career in IT and customer service before that, I would like my third career to be somewhere in the arts, preferably writing, snapping pix and even some videographic endeavours.
“Madam Producer, did you pick up on that and take a hint… an aspiring writer looking for a gig!”
A great big thanks to the trainers and fellow bloggers!
And remember: Keep calm and keep on blogging Ya’ll!
The Daily Post Photo challenge: Trio
What comes in threes? Submit an image for this week’s photo theme, Trio.
“There is something magical about three you know – a trio is tight and nicely economical” Ian Williams
Trio, Two
Good things
Do come in threes
A pretty red flower
In full bloom
In the middle of
Winter’s cold
Writing 101, Day Seventeen, A map as your muse
“Gold is a treasure, and he who possesses it does all he wishes to in this world, and succeeds in helping souls into paradise” Christopher Columbus
“X” marks the Spot
Looking for the pirate’s treasure
Nothing really can measure
The excitement and pleasure
And the feelings of pressure
An adventure for a lifetime
A tale before bedtime
A passage through time
When you finally reach
That one specific beach
And the day you siege
It is time to do as you preach
The treasure you found
Was right on the ground
What was once lost
Is now once more found
If you want to know
Come on, I will show
Your mind it will blow
But let’s take it slow
Maybe you were blind
But, look and you shall find
Finally without a strife
Only with, the purpose of life
After all
The X always marks the spot!
In honour of the month November

“The dog doesn’t know the difference between Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, so I have to walk the dog early those days too” Donna Shalala
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Happy Days, Part Two
Tired Tuesday?
Keeping darkness at bay
Light snow in the early morning hours
Maybe later some hail and rain showers
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
“Well, it’s worked so far, but we are not off yet” Dr McCoy, Star Trek
To boldly go where no Woman has gone before
“Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.”
— Astronomer Carl Sagan
Cosmos,
The final
Frontier
So far
And yet
So near
Entering the spaceship
Ready for a long trip
Going to Mars?
Or even farther beyond?
Following the stars
Over the magic pond
Through the window
Feelings of alone
One trail of thought
As the mental guide
Trying not to get caught
In a state of confined
As the flight progresses
I feel less stressed
What ever awaits me
It only can be
Something wonderful
And most magical
To boldly go
Where no
Woman
Where no one
Has gone
Before

Thursday, 19th of November, Part One
Today, Thursday…
…The sun appeared
The flowers on the table
Had started to bloom
Snapped a few pics
