“A place time forgot” Gun Roswell

Abandoned 

A doorway to nowhere specific
Grass growing, no one mowing the lawn
Would you buy this place?

“Always the feeling of blue, present” Gun Roswell

Blue on blue

Blue, the colour of air
Blue, painted on to the lonely chair
Blue, waves hitting the shores

World Wide Wednesday in Evia, Greece

Posted in World Wide Wednesday

“We travel,
some of us forever,
to seek other places,
other lives,
other souls.”
– Anais Nin

Evia

No sun a shining
When the storm clouds
Fill the horizon
Time to sail ashore
Before the all mighty Thor
Hits his hammer

The wind’s subsiding
The mist arising
It’s all calm
After the storm

Blue skies
Blue waters
No need,
To go any further

World Wide Wednesday in Cyprus

“Stop worrying about the potholes in the road and enjoy the journey.” – Babs Hoffman

Cyprus

A shot, quite familiar
In many ways, similar
For each and every traveller

Down the hill
Feel the chill
Enjoy the thrill!

Carved in stone
Possibly with bone
Record of the past
Made to last

Lighthouses
The white houses
Saving lives
Oh, so many times

The Finnish Dream for Favourite Foto Friday

Posted in FavFotoFriday

“Do not cross the brook for water” Finnish proverb

The Finnish Dream

A cottage on an island
Preferably on the highland
Still near or in the city
No running water nor electricity
Not another soul in sight
If you dare to enter
You will soon be in plight
Because the center
Of each Finns existence
Is the calculated distance
From their neighbour
Preferably as far as the equator

Early Bird catches the Sunrise

An early bird’s price
Is a gorgeous sunrise
Climbing high up in the skies
Before your very eyes

“Travellers never think that they are the foreigners” Mason Cooley

Lanzarote

A stroll around down town
A Lidl and a few shoeshops found
Time for a scenic break
Before to the road we take

Early Morning Sunrise for TBT

Posted in Throwback Thursday

I had a rule that I had to go to bed before the sun came up. So I used to look up the sunrise times because I thought it would be bad karma to be going to bed as dawn was arriving” Eric Schmidt

 

Early Morning Sunrise

Early morning Sunrise
What a pleasant surprise
For the early morning riser
What could be finer
Than being greeted by the magnificence
Of mother nature’s excellence
On this fine Winter’s morning
A few more days before holiday glory

Calm Before the Storm

Posted in Daily Photo

“It’s always most calm,
Before the storm”
Gun Roswell

Calm Before the Storm

Before it gets colder, there is always warm
Before it starts raining, the grey clouds will form
Before it gets safer, there is always harm
Before you get to argue, remember, this is the norm

Because,
Where ever there is calm
You will soon find, a storm
