“Keep your face to the sunshine
and you cannot see a shadow”
Helen Keller
Shadow and Light
Shadow and light
Presented
In black and white
Early morning sunrise
In the morning skies
Competing with
The early bird in flight

“Everyday life is like programming, I guess.
If you love something you can put beauty into it”
Donald Knuth
Solitary
Peaceful and silent
On this solitary island
Like a rough uncut diamond
Where blue meets blue
In the waters and skies hue
There is really not much to do
Maybe, just maybe
This is really good for you
Yes, this is my land
Here is were I stand
Just because, I can

Donald Knuth
Family
Please do not stop and stare
Because, this, is a family affair
We stand here
Huddled together
Like the proverbial
Bird of the same feather
Or maybe,
There is a too tight tether
Binding us like leather?
But never mind
Just be kind
Leave us to our devices
Our familiar vices
And for them
Do not us despise
For we are
Who we are
A family
Of roses
Standing here
In our poses

Painting
Flowers painted on a canvas:
Better than nature?
Possible, for longer they last?
Imitated reality
Possibly a guarantee
For the prosperity
Nature’s beauty to see
When all that you now see
Has long since passed

Donald Knuth
Cloudy, With Low Chance of Rain
Sometimes,
When it shines
It may also rain
In the skies
Onto the plane
You see,
It may be,
That the gods dined
Spilled some wine
Despite the weather fine
Not out of spite
Or us to smite
But just because the bright
Of the sunlight
Hit their eyes
The hand slipped
The chalice tipped
And the damage
Was done
Instead of whining
Of the gods’ fine dining
Just stand outside
With your mouth wide
And enjoy
The nature’s nectar
Maybe,
With a piece of cheddar
In this very fine
Weather

Ripples
When it comes to you,
I am quite predictive
And yes,
Utterly and deeply committed
Even though,
I may feel a little conflicted
I know,
I am very addicted
Sometimes,
To the point of wicked
But only you,
My rippling dark brown liquid
Can make me
Totally uplifted
Which Way?

Donald Knuth
Which Way?
Should I have stayed,
Or should I have gone?
Which way was up,
Which way did the flow go?
Did I make the right turn,
When I should have taken left?
Was it a mistake,
Or was the end justified by the means?
Much may be at stake
Or so it usually seems
Did I read the sign correctly,
Or maybe,
It was just elementary?

“What’s in a name?
That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet”
William Shakespeare
Roses and Yellow Things
A pink rose
Will give you a doze
Of the sweetest ambrosia
Then all you wanna do
Is celebrate and play the viola

“What’s in a name?
That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet”
William Shakespeare
Roses and Yellow Things
Roses in the colour of pink
Enjoy them with a soft drink
Just relax, do not think
The peace will slowly sink
