Handprints on the pavement


“The handprints of those whom dared to build the road, long ahead” Gun Roswell 

Handprints on the pavement

The structure made of concrete

The dreamer builders whom did not sleep

Building their roads, long and winding 

Leaving their marking, the prints of their making

Hands, as it stands 

Even names, preserved forever in the construction 

Never to be removed, still no distraction

When stepping on the stones

Making one’s way back home 

The road ahead holding and strong

Even after long since having crossed

The bridge to the afterlife

The gift of the ancient builders still lasts

The testimony of time 

But perhaps not a drill of the modern kind?

Rain on the Pavement (two)

“I always like walking in the rain,
so no one can see me crying.”
― Charlie Chaplin

Rain on the Pavement

Out of focus
Out of mind
Just a little hocus-pocus
And I am ready to rewind
The days of sunshine
Slowly, but surely
Entering my mind

“I always like walking in the rain,
so no one can see me crying.”
― Charlie Chaplin

Rain on the Pavement

Rain, rain, falling down
Onto the pavement
There is no slowing down
My face, now with one sentiment
– A permanently painted frown

Rain on the Pavement (three)

“I always like walking in the rain,
so no one can see me crying.”
― Charlie Chaplin

Rain on the Pavement

When it rains,
It really pours
Coming in,
From all of the windows
And most of the doors
Keep your feet dry
Stay off the floors
There is no stopping
The rain drops are popping
No place secure
Just try to endure
It will be over
Before you can say
“Red rover, red rover”

Pavement on Mundane Monday

Posted in Mundane Monday : Photography /Poetry /Humour

“I like to make the mundane fabulous whenever I can”
Rufus Wainwright

Pavement

Lights reflected
Onto the pavement
Making a statement
Before disappearing
Into the basement
