“Even if it turns out that time travel is impossible,
it is important that we understand why it is impossible”
Stephen Hawking

Seconds

Heart beating
Time is running out
Only a few seconds left
For the ultimate request
Using a different route
Feels like cheating

Finally reaching
My own hideout
No time for rest
Only doing my best
No time for tryout
Parameter breaching

Safely in my blue box
Punching the clock
Time starts moving
Seconds removing
Going backwards
Against standards

They said
It couldn’t be done
But did I bet
And know I am gone
Back in time
Trying to find
…My future

Reflections, Two

“Style is a reflection of your attitude and your personality”
Shawn Ashmore

Reflections

Through the looking glass
Reflections from present and past
Mystified images mirrored
In your mind’s eye forever

Sleepy Kitty

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“Sleepy Kitty
Happy Kitty
Purr, purr, purr”

Sleepy Kitty

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

“The world is a book,
and those who do not travel
read only a page”
Saint Augustine

Verbania, Italy

Narrow are the streets
So be quick on your feet
Navigating in too deep
May leave you lost
Oh, and with what cost!
(Cheap ;))

Take a stroll
To the town hall

Sailing, sailing
Over the lake away
Watching, finding
All kinds of things to say
About this quaint city
In this land of Italy

Man Made Green (seven)

I could understand the full value of grass in a green ditch”

Man Made Green

Rain and green
It’s all I’ve seen
Since I was a teen
Guess,
It’s just in my genes?

Ella Maillart

Man Made Green

Sunshine and green,
There is really nothing
In between

Enjoy it
With lots of caffeine
Afterwards
You might need some melamine

Go outside
Hop on the trampoline
You can read the magazines
In the eve
