“The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page” Saint Augustine
Porvoo
The old town of Porvoo
A home away from home
Flew there like a crow
Stated ,when in Rome…
Found the nearest cafe
Which was close to the bay
Enjoyed the sunny day
Until turn of eve
When it was time to leave

“Monday is great if I can spend it in bed. I’m a man of simple pleasures, really” Arthur Darvill
Mundane Monday
Just another Manic Monday
Certainly not my fun day
Back in the office again
Simply cannot explain
It just happens
Always after weekend
Leaving me baffled
I cannot help myself
And leaves me overwhelmed
I just end up here
In this stratosphere
Called work

“Photography, as a powerful medium of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and execution” Ansel Adams
Monolith
Tall, dark and mysterious
Standing by itself, all serious
Staring at it, getting nervous
Or maybe just a little delirious

“If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness and fears” Cesare Pavese
Esplanade
Down the esplanade
We like to parade
With a gentle sway
For a while in the cafes stay
Until summer will fade
And to indoors we will trade

Aleksanterinkatu
The fearless leader from Russia
Made such a fuss-ia
Wanted a statue
And a street no less
As a name sake
Oh, we are no fools
And know he was a fake
He had his dues
But I must confess
The names sound kinda cool!

“I don’t generally like running.
I believe in training by rising gently up
and down from the bench”
Satchel Paige
A Bench to Sit on
Then I saw it
The bench, made of stone
When I tried to sit
I felt it to my bones
Too hard for a fit!

“Investment in travel is an investment in yourself”
~ Matthew Karsten
A Whole Lotta Going On
Ferris wheels, Cranes and such
Sure packed a lot of stuff
And into just one image!
Now all we need to do,
Is to put the ball into the scrimmage
Don’t have a clue?
Well, just follow the mimic
I promise, it’s not a gimmick!

Panorama
The city panorama
Display filled with drama
Well, at least in the words
Of a known Americana!

“I’d thought I wanted to live free of my mundane little cage, but the world outside was feeling more and more hazardous.”
― Shannon Hale
Through the Looking Glass
It’s just glass
See-through mass
Push real hard
And through it you will pass

“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet”
Napoleon Bonaparte
A Seat in the Bar
Sitting in a comfy leathery seat
With your favourite treat
Chosen none too hasty
A glass of something tasty
Enjoy the fleeting moment
Without any sound or comment
It won’t last for long
And then, the moment, is gone
