“It’s usually our opposites who complement us best, because they’re the only ones who can balance us out.”
― Rachel Hollis, Party Girl
Opposites for The Daily Post
Out with the old
In with the new
Even if it’s made of gold
There’s nothing we can do?

Opposites for The Daily Post
But what if
We change it?
A new coat of paint
To look less quaint?
Looks won’t be deceiving
It’s all in the matter of perceiving
We can hide it
Or even camouflage it
It’s still an old version
Even after the conversion
But we need a little diversion
Even to the strongest aversion
So now, a new lease
And together in peace
With the neighbours of new
And no one says “ew!”

“Who am I that I have to sing under an umbrella? These people are my fans, and if they can stand in the rain to hear me sing, I can stand in the rain” Bobby Darin
Umbrella
Step under my umbrella
We can sing in a cappella
Like we were the Ella
Just out of hella
Lady or a fella
Let’s create a novella
You can play the Stella
Prance around like a gazella
Maybe invite the Cinderella
Even if she is vanilla
There is no dilemma
Here what I tell ‘Ya
It’s quite the Rockwell’a
So step under my umbrella
Just out of the hella

“Snow and then some!”
Uphill Battle
Ride, ride, ride your bike
Gently up the hill
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a chill

“Life is a song – sing it. Life is a game – play it. Life is a challenge – meet it. Life is a dream – realize it. Life is a sacrifice – offer it. Life is love – enjoy it” Sai Baba
Songs and All Types of Tunes for Throwback Thursday
On Thursdays we walk down memory lane and dig deeply into the archives of Rantings Of A Third Kind. For these posts, I have chosen some of my personal favourites. Some of them may tickle the funny bone, some even provoke thoughts and some of them will give you a view of the world in photographs taken by yours truly.
This week’s digging into the archives, has produced a set of posts related to songs. Well, at least rhyming tales and poetry, but they do carry a tune:P Enjoy!

The beast of burden
Is quite determined
To haul its cargo
From here to Fargo

Little convertible
You are so flexible
And very transportable
But even still
The genuine article
A bike is a bike
Of course, of course!

When crossing the street
Better be quick on your feet
The bikerettes are on the move
In their vehicles of blue
With wheels of two

You just drive
And I will follow
Ok, fine
It’ll be, a while
