“Maimed but still magnificent…
Europe’s mightiest medieval cathedral”
R. W. Apple, Jr.

Cathedral for Daily Photo

What a piece of art!
Done by someone very smart
Or possibly straight from the heart

The ‘ohs’ and ‘ahs’ over the chart
Can be heard from here to St Barts
Someone tried the work bogart
But the artist said, “never could I part”

So, luckily for our viewing pleasure
We can now admire this permanent treasure
In our place of worship in our leisure

Sankta Lucia

Posted in Celebration National Day

“Night walks with a heavy step
Round yard and hearth,
As the sun departs from earth,
Shadows are brooding.
There in our dark house,
Walking with lit candles,
Santa Lucia, Santa Lucia”

lucia-1899

Sankta Lucia

The bearer of light
For the future to shine bright
With all her might
Like the shining white knight
Her sword will smite
All the anger and spite
The world to rewrite
Without war or fight
Sankta Lucia

Pavement

Lights reflected
Onto the pavement
Making a statement
Before disappearing
Into the basement

Ride, ride, ride the red bike
Gently down the road
Because it’s frozen winter time
And it’s a slippery slope!

“Win or lose,
we go shopping after the election”
Imelda Marcos

Shopping Mall Deer, Part Two, Going Cartoon

shopping-mall-deer-the-cartoon-1
I am Eddy,
The shopping mall reindeer
A big plastic piece of work
This side of the hemisphere

So did this little tune
And ended in a cartoon
Watch me now,
And don’t confuse me with a cow
As I am starring
With all you shoppers sparring

I am Eddy,
The shopping mall reindeer
A big plastic piece of work
This side of the hemisphere

Shopping Mall Deer 

I am Eddy,
The shopping mall reindeer

A big plastic piece of work
This side of the hemisphere
Some say, I am a little queer

But when they see me oh so very near
They say, after a few drunken beer
I am the prettiest thing this year
So come on closer and my song hear

For I am Eddy,
The shopping mall reindeer

Saara, Saara, Saara Aalto
Singing in bass or alto

With the voice of an angel
You won our hearts
You killed in the charts
You are a true master
