Early tourist
Catches the worm
Deep in the forest
Before the storm

Breakfast time

Starting a great day
With some healthy treats out laid
Guess enough was said
Except:
Just eat it!

Sunrise

Wake up!
The sun is rising
Red sky mesmerizing
The only thing to do
Is to shut up,
And enjoy the fun

Manic Mundane Monday (TBT)

Posted in the Throwback Thursday weekly series
Poetry, photography, tales and things that nature!

“Monday is great if I can spend it in bed. I’m a man of simple pleasures, really” Arthur Darvill

Manic 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

On the Streets of Vienna for World Wide Wednesday

vienna-21

“Österreich ist eine kleine Welt, in der die große ihre Probe hält.”
Friedrich Hebbel

Space Oddity in Vienna

“This is ground control: Major Tom, please respond: over”

“This is Major Tom: over”

“Major Tom, we have located your space pod: over”

A moment of silence on the receiving end before response:
“Um… Where exactly did you find it: over”

“City of Vienna, Austria: over”

A muffled “oops” is heard from Major Tom’s end:
“O-K, ground control. Um, any chance you could give me a lift there?: over”

“Roger that M T! By the by, we do not seem to be able to track you on the device: over”

“Well, I am kind of in a situation here…” odd noises heard on the background, “What if I just send my coordinates and you can send vehicle, OK? : over”

In the ground control, quick typing can be heard and in the distance, a loud O.M.G.
“Ah, we got your location. Sending extraction right away: over”

“A big thanks, ground control! End transmission”

 

Back at the ground control, the two officers are staring at the screen where the location of Major Tom is blinking. The other officer turns to look at the other one:

“I can’t believe he actually ended up there…”
“Yeah, me neither”
The officers continue to stare at the blinking screen, both shaking their heads in disbelief…

And what was the location where Major Tom had ended up in?
Well…

Reflections at the Exit

When you exit
Across the glass made of plexi
Your face is reflecting

Fair warning: images in the mirror may not be as pretty as in real life (or in your own mind ;P)!

Technisches Museum Wien

Highly geometrical
Absolutely spectacular
With oh so many decimals
A house of the technical

OK, so it’s the museum for Tech:
Go and check it out all you wanna be nerds!

Ride on a Bike

Rent a street bike
And around the Österreich
You can easily hike
Or at least,
The streets of Vienna!
