“Time spent with cats is never wasted”
Sigmund Freud

Caturday

Cats in stripes
Cats all white
Cats that are black
Cats which are gray
Cats in a six pack
Cats who are stray

Take one home
You’re never alone
The time spent
With your cat
Even if a chat
Is never complicated
And never wasted

Island

“No man is an island,
entire of itself;
every man is a piece of the continent”
John Donne

Island

On an
Deserted island
I got slammed

This is, my land
This is, where I make my stand
Here lays, my strand

If here, you try to land
Know that, you’ll be damned
By the wave, of my hand
You will be, hanged

“Cats are like music:
It is foolish to try to explain their worth
to those who do not appreciate them”

The Girl and The Cat

If you want to bet
The only comment you get
“What the heck,
Are you staring at!”

“Cats are like music:
It is foolish to try to explain their worth
to those who do not appreciate them”

The Girl and The Cat

No time to chase a rat
No time for a little chat
Not even an eyelid will bat

No time for the internet
Nothing playing on the cassette
Nothing moves, on the chess set

Would you look at that!
The girl with the cat
On the sofa, laying flat

Finnish Labour Day Eve Celebration (30.04) aka ‘Mantan Lakitus’

Havis Amanda
The gorgeous lady
Rising from the sea
Naked as if bathing
Bearing everything
For the eyes to see
Tourists are watching
Cameras are clicking
A true beauty
Reflecting the city
Of Helsinki

“Most safely shall you tread the middle path”
Ovid

Safe and Sound

Bundled up
Me, and the pup
Mommies too
’cause they are part of my crew

Safe and Sound | one

“Most safely shall you tread the middle path”
Ovid

Safe and Sound

The comfy family sofa
Was filled up to the quota
There is safety in numbers
For those awake
And those in slumber

“Most safely shall you tread the middle path”
Ovid

Safe and Sound

Safe and sound
We two are bound
Peas in the pod
We two are quite the sort

Safe and Sound | four

“Most safely shall you tread the middle path”
Ovid

Safe and Sound

Mommy’s kiss
Contains my wish
We are cuddled
And securely huddled
