London in Black and White in the Rain

…Never mind the sad bad weather
My skin is made of thick leather
A few raindrops do not harm
Even a little storm
Won’t keep me away
From the London sway

London in Black and White in the Rain

Rain, rain, rain
Running down the drain
Around in the City of London
Without the feeling of boredom
Too many things to see
Face lit up with a glee…

“If it’s the right chair,
it doesn’t take too long to get comfortable in it”
Robert De Niro

Little Red Chair 

“If the chair fits
Sit on it!”

Oh, little red seat
Your presence us greets
You are so sweet
Such a visual treat
Even the photo turned out neat
That I just had to tweet

Happy with my kitty for Caturday

For Caturday

Happy with my kitty
So I wrote this little ditty
Why don’t you sing along
To the tune of this familiar song

Soft kitty, warm kitty
Purring on my lap
Sleepy kitty, happy kitty
Why don’t I too take a nap

My little ball of fur
Listening to you purr
Life is kind of a blur
But this is how I prefer

“There’s nowhere else like London.
Nothing at all, anywhere”
Vivienne Westwood

London in Black and White

…Hop on a bus
Without much fuss
Follow the lines
And you’ll be fine
Eyes wide open
Seeing more than hoping
In the evening
You are dreaming
Of how much more
The next day has in store

London in Black and White

Over the rooftops
To the hustle and bustle
Of the streets of London
In just a few hops
A few old castles
And a famous dungeon…

Heavy Metal for Mundane Monday

Posted in Mundane Monday

“Creativity is piercing the mundane to find the marvelous”
Bill Moyers

Heavy Metal

Up the stairs
Down the stairs
clicking and clacking of heals
On the heavy metal seals
If you’re running fast
The echoes will last
All the way up
Or way down

Mini Seat for Seat Sunday

“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet”
Napoleon Bonaparte

Mini Seat 

A mini seat
Is quite neat
But,
It won’t carry
A large fleet

Black Cat for Caturday

Posted in Caturday

“A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere”
Groucho Marx

Black Cat

When the black cat
Was crossing the street
She was chasing a rat
Trying to act discreet
Hiding behind a big hat
Awaiting her treat

The grounded bat
Knew he tasted sweet
Stood still on the mat
There was no time to greet
Only time, for combat

After a long while
Both standing still
Trying to act hostile
But without thrill
So instead of the usual
They decided in mutual

This tale’s end
Will the norm bend
Cat and mouse decided
To shake their paws delighted
The lesson of this tale?
Sometimes it’s good to fail
