It’s a bike?
It’s a trike?
No, it’s a Super bike!
Three wheels
Check out
How it feels
Ride a trike
It’s just like a bike
Only much more
Fun!

Christmas Celebration in a Different Style (Daily Photo 2015-12-26)
Spin that bottle
In full throttle
The ceiling covered
With all sorts of bottles
Blue and white
Shining so bright
Who ever told us
The skies would fall upon us
Failed to mention
The bottles were fastened
Into the ceiling!

Share each Friday, on your own blog, one photo…or maybe even a gallery of some of your favorite photos that you have taken during the week, that make you smile or that was a great photo capturing opportunity…anything really! And as photographers are often known to say, “The best camera is, the one that you have with you!”
“It’s the season to be jolly…”
Favourite Photo Friday, 2015-12-25
This week I would like to share a photo which was actually not yet posted on my blog, rather only on Instagram. I have been trying to stay off my blog during this holiday week and take some time off during my short stay in the gorgeous island of Lanzarote, but it seems the blog has a will of its own and keeps whispering in my ear to post 😉
There was a special moment up in the sky this week in Puerto del Carmen, which I would like to share with you all. A flashy light kind of a thing (call it a UFO if you will :p) appeared from out of nowhere and stayed a while. It seemed to be shooting a light beam into the sun and making it shine even brighter, if possible. I managed to snap this photograph with my mobile phone while peddling in the pool; lucky shot I guess!
Enjoy!

Fabulous Friday 2015-12-25
Rocking around
The Christmas pool
Having a happy holiday!
The sun above
Up in the sky
Shining all so bright
On this gorgeous day!
It’s a Fabulous Friday!
No elves, reindeer
Nor Santa in sight
They must have
Taken a flight
Either to
The North Pole
Or maybe even
Hitting the pool!
Never mind
Where they are
They couldn’t have gone
Much too far
The holiday tree
Is set for thee
Maybe even
Something free
Happy Holidays and a Fabulous Friday,
One and All!

“Have yourself a merry little Christmas”
Christmas Celebration in a Different Style (Daily Photo 2015-12-25)
Warmth, happiness, sun light
What could be a merrier Yuletide
Than spending the holiday
On this most gorgeous day
The one special day of the year
At the pool, beach or a pier

Happy Holidays and A Very Merry Xmas to One and All!
‘Twas the night before Christmas
Nothing stirred,
No sound was heard
No human, nor animal, in sight
Even the mice had taken flight
The only ones about their business
Were the little green men from Mars
They had to be really careful
Their nature a little bit fearful
For the holidays not to turn into a farce
It was their turn to spread wholly
Presents and a great amounts of jolly
In a mighty hurry
No time for blurry
Their sleigh filled
Up to the hilt
As it took off
With a big bang
And a huge puff
As they all sang
The yuletide carols
As they rolled off
Children and grown-ups
Getting lots of stuff
As the little green men
Working collectively
Their derrières off in zen
As the Xmas spirit
Now duly delivered
All around the world
At least,
That is what we heard

“Santa has it great. I buy all the toys. He gets all the credit.”
Mrs Claus (Daily Photo 2015-12-24)
Mrs Claus
Without applause
Doing her bid
Without a quid
Yuletide
Without the bride
Of Santa
Would be banter
No jolly
Or celebration folly
For me
Or you
The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Now
Sometimes, we get caught up in nostalgia, future fantasy, or both, and we don’t embrace the “now.” For this week’s challenge, take a moment to notice your present, and share a photo of it.

In the Here and Now
Children’s voices
Echoing in the distance
A dog was barking
The sun warm on my skin
The wind blowing softly
Rippling the water slightly
The fluffy white clouds high
Up in the blue sky
Filtering the rays of the sun
Feeling being the only one
Sitting onto the empty bench
Enjoying the silence
As I sit by myself
Letting moments pass by
A soft content sigh
The only sound
In the here and now
To be found
Happy Holidays to One and All!

Throwback Thursday 2015-12-24
Today is time for a walk down memory lane again and dig into the archives of Rantings Of A Third Kind since the beginning of time. Well at least from the beginning of this blog 😛

“It is curious how often humans manage to obtain that which they do not want” Mr Spock
Highly Illogical
I find You
Absolutely fascinating
Extremely interesting
Utterly charming
Highly intriguing
Totally captivating
I am
Spellbound and transfixed
By all certainty, bewitched
Wrapped around Your little finger
If I could, I would linger
I am only
Admiring You
From a distance
Still with persistence
But slightly askew
If
An instance
Would arise
It would be
My greatest price
Up close and personally
Give my thanks, my gratitude most cordially
Yet
I find myself
Highly illogical
