Thursday

Not a pretty day
The lack of sun
Cannot be fun

The icy cold mist
Does nothing to enlist
To the fan base
Of this common day
Also known
As Thursday

Oh, but look!
There might be hope
In the horizon
The sun is arising!
All hail
It’s Thursday!

Manic Monday? (Daily Photo) One

Is this another Manic Monday?
Or just another January Fun-day?



It’s six o’clock already, but I need to drive steady. The roads are iced and if I drive too fast, I will get sliced. As usual, after the weekend, Monday follows and so does the mania and the panic. Rushing here and rushing there. A never ending story of this writer’s life. Or does it apply to everyone?

Just when I thought it was safe to say, it’s going to be a peaceful day, all hell breaks loose. So who cooked the goose this time? All was fine, for a moment at least, but someone unleashed the beast. And yet again, another fire to fight! Ah this poor girl’s plight.

Several hours later, when once again, I have turned into a hater, of Mondays, the sun has come out to play! I’m secretely hoping it is here to stay! I rush out, leaving my gloves and coat behind. Never mind! The air is much warmer now. After all, only minus degrees of two, so what have I got to loose!

Reaching the seashore, the sunrise to score. Enjoying a few seconds, because the sun beckoned and then… it hits me. The coldest of winds, blowing in my face. Oh how I really hate… Winter! GRRRR.

Hakaniemi (Sightseeing and Walkabout) Two

The notorious part of the town
Clad in a glorious white gown
Don’t let the history fool you
Sit down on a bench for the view
Beautiful in summer or winter
No longer a sore splinter
Of the great city of Helsinki

Hakaniemi, One

Travelling in my home country, Finland and in the exotic capital of Helsinki. For this week I have chosen the (in)famous Hakaniemi, a stone throw away from the City Centre. Or you can just take the Metro or tram to reach Hakaniemi in four minutes from the Central Railway Station 😉

Enjoy!IMG_20160119_143845

A snowy sunny day
In the land far far away
Up North, let us pray!
Children came out to play
Even adults came forth

After all

What else is there to say
Because yet another
Fabulous and sunny Friday
Has found its way

“You can be the moon and still be jealous of the stars” Gary Allan

Early Morning Sunrise with Crescent Moon, Daily Photo 2015-12-07, Part Three

The storms have finally passed
The moon its light trying to cast
The sun pushing its way with a blast
Daylight waving its flag in the mast
Oh how I wish this forever could last
But only for a passing moment
Then it’s all over way too fast
Darkness has covered the skies alas
