“Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky” Rabindranath Tagore
Calm Before the Storm, Daily Photo 2015-12-05, Part One
Painted red is the evening sky
Clouds gathering before the eye
Time standing almost still
Feeling anxious from the thrill
It is the moment of calm
Before the coming of the storm

Poetry and Photography
“December’s wintery breath is already clouding the pond, frosting the pane, obscuring summer’s memory…” John Geddes
December The First
December the first
Came with a burst
A sunrise most gorgeous
It’s almost flirtatious
Come what may
December made its way
Holiday season upon us
With sunshine in abundance

“Share each Friday, on your own blog, one photo…or maybe even a gallery of some of your favorite photos that you have taken during the week, that make you smile or that was a great photo capturing opportunity…anything really! And as photographers are often known to say, “The best camera is, the one that you have with you!”
Favourite Photo Friday , 2015-11-27
For this week’s Favourite Photo of the week, I have chosen not one, but two from my Wednesday’s World Wide Wednesday series, which presented the city of Porvoo in colour in two parts.
Depicted is the beautiful river “Porvoonjoki” and the slow relaxed living during summer time in the old town of Porvoo, Finland.

An homage to the Swan, the national bird of Finland
“The swan, like the soul of the poet, By the dull world is ill understood” Heinrich Heine
Swans
Majestic and regal
Equal to an eagle
A bird of the royals
Worthy of the nobles
Beauties in flight
Whitest of knights
From the blue skies
Watch the dive
The black swan
Swimming at dawn
Her dark shadow
Contrast to snow

Many a beautiful sunrises
Too many gorgeous sunsets
Which is the one to choose
Could not, so I let it loose

Enjoy them all, why don’t you

Another Early Morning Sunrise
After the stormy weather and pouring rain
The sun came out to play again
The early October morning, day called Monday
It seems I can start calling it my fun day
A Late Night Sunset
The eve was about to set
I was once again treated
With a another gorgeous sunset
Today, on this Monday
One of the last days of October

Favourite Photo Of the Week
So many to choose from
I don’t even know
Where they all come from
But I guess it is the how
I am the only one to blame
If some of them gets the fame
This is what I chose this week
Hope it is what you all seek

The Daily Post: (Extra)ordinary Part Three
The days are getting shorter
Reflections on the water
The last of the reminders
Of the times much kinder
The games of summer played
The tanned skin to rest laid
Tall shadows now displayed
Soon enough will fade
Because,
When in October
The cold shoulder
Of winter
Soon will reenter

The Daily Post: (Extra)ordinary Part Two
Just another ordinary day
A day at the office
Blue for the skies
Blue for the thoughts
Looking out the window
Weather getting brighter
Mood is getting lighter
No time to hesitate
Out for a quick break
Sunshine and cool weather
What could be better
