And, yet another homage to Coffee ;P
“I can’t imagine a day without coffee. I can’t imagine!” Howard Schultz
Monday with(out) Coffee
What is a Monday
But a slow day of Sunday
Without coffee
It’s just a faded copy
It’s just what you seek
So, don’t hesitate
Go ahead, start the week
With a fresh, clean slate
Make your way
To the coffee maker
For a while stay
After all,
You deserved a break

Photo challenge for PhoTrabloggers Mundane Monday
“This is a challenge created to find beauty in almost everything. The challenge is simple : find beauty in everyday mundane things, capture the beauty and upload the photographs.”
MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE #35
“I think you can find all the elements that you can find in great literature in mundane experiences” Harvey Pekar
One, Two
It started with a few
Then there were two
Only remaining
A single one
Nothing to be done
The time for Winter
Has finally come

Poetry & Photography
“Believe in love. Believe in magic. Hell, believe in Santa Claus. Believe in others. Believe in yourself. Believe in your dreams. If you don’t, who will?” Jon Bon Jovi
A Visit to Father Christmas
The jolly Saint Nick
For some, Father Christmas
To others, Santa Claus
Call him what you will
You will always get your fill
Of happy thoughts and enjoyment
And possibly a nice payment
On Christmas Eve
If you only believe
In honour of the month of November

“So. Monday. We meet again. We will never be friends—but maybe we can move past our mutual enmity toward a more-positive partnership.” Julio Alexi Genao
Last Day of November
Last day of November
Wishing it was still September
Or at least a snowy day in December
Rain, rain, rain
Some more rain
Feelings of mundane
Starting to sink in
Dull, dark, dreary
Nature somewhat eerie
The sun coming out rarely
Hanging in there barely
Last ones of leaves
In the barest of trees
Holding on for dear life
Existence one big strife
Then, something unexpected
When you least expected
A beam of light reflected
On the dark surface
Could it be?
Is it possibly…
Sunlight?
The Daily Post Photo Challenge: Transition
For this week’s challenge, share an image that depicts transition. Let life itself be your muse.
Part Four: Winter
“In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer” Albert Camus
Winter
Brightness surrounding
Snow’s blanket covers all
Feeling my heart pounding
Cannot help but feeling small
The world seemingly wider
Nothing, but snow as a divider
The Daily Post Photo Challenge: Transition
For this week’s challenge, share an image that depicts transition. Let life itself be your muse.
Part Three: November
“November always seemed to me the Norway of the year” Emily Dickinson
November
Endless darkness has fallen
The sun elsewhere been stolen
Searching for a bright spot
Is like trying to change the plot

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

For this week’s challenge, share an image that depicts transition. Let life itself be your muse.
Part One: Summer
“Oh, the summer night, Has a smile of light, And she sits on a sapphire throne” Bryan Procter
Summer
The colours lush and green
No rain nor snow was seen
On a warm summer’s night
Both stars and skies were bright

“Love isn’t always as straight and narrow as you’d like to think” Gun Roswell
Amore
Oh L’amour
The word itself, pure glamour
Love
If it fits like a glove
Like the two proverbial doves
On a branch busy at tweet
Generating more heat
Than a red glowing stove
Love knows no gender
Love knows no age
Love is always tender
Love knows no hate

“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
