Mommy dearest
You are so fearless
Even though I’m hairless
Being in the nearness
Makes me fearless too

Dense (two)

“My house. It’s kind of eccentric.
It’s two decades worth of accumulated personal projects.
Yeah, it is pretty dense in my house”
Douglas Coupland

Dense

Streets filled with people
Streets filled with clutter
Even the odd beagle
In the centre will hover

A densely populated market
It’s an easy target
For the lone tourist
Looking for more than nourishment

Universal Children’s Day 20 November

Posted in Celebration: Universal Children’s Day 20 November

“Childhood means simplicity.
Look at the world with the child’s eye –
it is very beautiful.”
Kailash Satyarthi

Universal Children’s Day

The world would be total shit
Without a child in it
No laughter, nor giggles
No mystery nor riddles

Doing all kinds of silly things
With her dog and tiny wings
Future wide and open
For them you are hoping

Joy and fortune
Without worry or torture
Today’s little children
Tomorrow’s gems and pearls

Let them play
Let them stay
Little children
A while longer

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki: Intro

This week’s World Wide Wednesday is visiting the town of Helsinki. A city way up north, where reindeer roam the streets, it snows in summer and people are rarely seen or heard of…

But seriously, a very nice summer city to visit, my former hometown and very clean, lush and sunny, except when it rains… And it does, a lot 😉 So welcome to Hel-sinki!

Smiles All Around

There are smiles to be found
Just pass them all around
And listen to the sound
Of laughter in the background
When we are all finally unwound

The Little Lady has a new toy
She is very proud of her new joy
Shouting out loud Ahoy!
When she prances around in a coy
