Poetry, photography, tales and things that nature!
“Curiouser and curiouser” Lewis Carroll
Through the Looking Glass
Through the looking glass
Life will quickly pass
Surfaces reflecting light
What a visual display in sight
A glimpse of an image
Transparent as the line of scrimmage
Moving fast and fading away
Only within imagination to stay

Photo challenge for PhoTrabloggers Mundane Monday
“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
Writing 101, A Poem A Day, Day 2: Reflections
Poetry & Photography
On water, in puddles, in glass, in mirrors – reflections can clarify, blur reality, or fracture it altogether. They can serve up surreal images or a perspective that’s unexpected. Whether it’s street light-reflected raindrops or the sky distorted in a half-melted patch of ice, reflections are nature’s funhouse mirrors.
Reflections are not limited to non-living objects. Our bodies reflect our internal health and our clothes reflect our lifestyle. We also reflect internally upon our world, our physical state, or on ideas bouncing around inside our skulls.
Clear or distorted, in your poem today tell us something about the reflections you see — in the world or in yourself.
“Style is a reflection of your attitude and your personality” Shawn Ashmore
Reflections, Two
Through the looking glass
Reflections from present and past
Mystified images mirrored
In your mind’s eye forever

Reflections, One
Reflections on the walls
Reflections on the windows
The sunsets and sunrises
Reflected on each surface

“I am not a person who reaches for the moon as long as I have the stars” Gertrude Ederle
December Moon, Part Four
Echoes of the past
Echoes of the future
Time is moving fast
No later than sooner
Up high
In the sky
Total bliss
When time is
Standing still
If you blink
Even a wink
The moment
Passed you by
Oh how
Time flies
Posted in honour of the month of December
Poetry and Photography
“December’s wintery breath is already clouding the pond, frosting the pane, obscuring summer’s memory…” John Geddes
December The First
December the first
Came with a burst
A sunrise most gorgeous
It’s almost flirtatious
Come what may
December made its way
Holiday season upon us
With sunshine in abundance
Posted in response to Minttu Gustafsson’s Facebook challenge:
A three day three selfie challenge
“I am who I am, your approval isn’t needed”
Elevator Selfies
Selfies
Self-imposed snaps
When ever, where ever
Is a matter of fact
Never say never
You might get caught
In selfie pose of sorts
With the camera
Held in your hand
Lens facing yours
Was it planned?
Never mind, I won’t tell
No breaking the spell
Selfies are the now
And then
In honour of the month November

Thursday, 19th of November, Part One
Today, Thursday
Early morning
I woke up
Showered
Looked out the window
It was really dark
The rain had continued
All through the night
Went outside for a while
Snapped a few pics
Worked, worked, worked
Meetings and then some
Had a snack break
The sun appeared
The flowers on the table
Had started to bloom
Snapped a few pics
Worked some more
Afternoon
It was time for a
Splash in the pool
Left to take the dive
Had a few minutes to enjoy the nature
Snapped a few pics
Back home
More work
More meetings
Urgency
Finally,
Working day ended
It was really dark outside
Put out some Christmas decor
Snapped a few pics
Much later
Posted some blogs
Went to sleep
Dreaming of tomorrow…
It will be Fabulous Friday!

“Last Wednesday, I stupidly dropped my iPhone in the bath, and my life has sort of spiraled almost out of control” Patrick Stewart
Wednesday, 18th of November, Part Two
Today, Wednesday
Really early morning
I woke up
Showered
Looked out the window
It was getting lighter
Sunrise!
Snapped a few pics
Drove to the office
The sunrise in full
Hurried to the pier
Snapped a few pics
Worked, worked, worked
Had a lunch break
In the late afternoon
Had great food
Snapped a few pics
Worked some more
Had a coffee break
And had a…
Few more cups of coffee
Snapped a few pics
Of the coffee that is
Working day ended
It was really dark outside
The decor was nicely lit
Snapped a few pics
Drove back home
Posted some blogs
Went to sleep
Dreaming of tomorrow
It will be Thursday…
