World Wide Wednesday in Cyprus
“Stop worrying about the potholes in the road and enjoy the journey.” – Babs Hoffman
Cavemen
Carved in stone
Possibly with bone
Record of the past
Made to last

Down the hill
Down the hill
Feel the chill
Enjoy the thrill!

Sunset for Daily Photo
Sunset,
On a rainy day
Setting,
Across the ocean bay
Creating,
A pleasant display

Just Another Day in July for Daily Photo
If you expected sunshine,
Sitting on a terrace
With a cool glass of wine
And feeling, just fine
Then,
I hate to disappoint
Dearie,
But it seems,
The odds
Are heavily
Against you
The weather gods
Decided their jobs
Was to make you sob
Like the true sociopaths
Bringing on their wrath
Even if you did not need a bath
But soaking wet
Soon you’ll be
If you think
The game is set
Maybe
It is time to flee
Or then
Just forget,
The bummer
After all
It is summer
And just
Another day
In July

Day Six: “Solitude” — The Rule of Thirds
Today, let’s capture solitude: the state of being alone, or a lonely and uninhabited place. What does this word look like to you?
“Solitude standing” Suzanne Vega
One Winter’s Day
Break time
Nothing but time
On my hands
No other plans
Cool sea breeze
My hands freeze
Trying not to sneeze
Uttering, “please”
Let this break
Be over soon!

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki
“If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness and fears” Cesare Pavese
Panorama
The city panorama
Display filled with drama
Well, at least in the words
Of a known Americana!

Mikonkatu
The busy street for walking
Maybe a little stalking
Well, at least in the pricy shops
If you dare inside them drop
You may loose a shirt or few
And maybe, some money too

Aleksanterinkatu
The fearless leader from Russia
Made such a fuss-ia
Wanted a statue
And a street no less
As a name sake
Oh, we are no fools
And know he was a fake
He had his dues
But I must confess
The names sound kinda cool!

Esplanade
Down the esplanade
We like to parade
With a gentle sway
For a while in the cafes stay
Until summer will fade
And to indoors we will trade

Esplanade Park
The dude in the middle
Is not playing the fiddle
A man of importance
Has taken his forever stance
Petrified in the park
Quite a benchmark
And apparently a seagull
Thought to have some fun
While seated above
Right on the top
Possibly out of love
Or just a photo op
