World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki: Intro

This week’s World Wide Wednesday is visiting the town of Helsinki. A city way up north, where reindeer roam the streets, it snows in summer and people are rarely seen or heard of…

But seriously, a very nice summer city to visit, my former hometown and very clean, lush and sunny, except when it rains… And it does, a lot 😉 So welcome to Hel-sinki!

A Seat at the Restaurant for Seat Sunday

“I have no plans to rock myself to sleep in my bath chair yet” Bruce Forsyth

Modern Times

Oh, how time flies
In front of our very eyes
Running around makes none the wise
So, just take a seat, relax, fill your supplies
There is no resistance
For these modern times

Waiting

Important meeting to decide one’s fate?
Maybe a secret hideaway, for a coffee date?
Watching, waiting, by the gate
Why, oh why is my destiny late?

Empty Seats

Finally, the storm has passed
The remaining overcast
Will not for long last
Moving on, is our goal
After all, it is good for our soul
And faster and faster, we stroll

“I have no plans to rock myself to sleep in my bath chair yet” Bruce Forsyth

When it Rains…

When it rains, it possibly pours
How to find a shelter outdoors?
Behold, a wonderful escape
In a shape of a cafe
By the beautiful Esplanade
Soon, sitting, coffee enjoying
Carefully watching
Life and passersby flowing
And the sunshine washing
The rainy clouds away
