“All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware” Martin Buber

People of all Sorts

helsinki-13

The lady with her dog
Was looking for a grog
The taxi had already gone
So she decided to sit on the log

The dude is a statue
He was quite the virtue
Now with a seagull
He seems a little dull

By the old water fountain
Because I did not want to
Climb the tallest mountain!

Market Square

“Fresh fish,
Get you fresh fish here,
Catch of today
On your plate won’t stay!”

“Sausages,
Fresh boiled sausages
Made from reindeer
Don’t worry dear
Rudolf not included!”

“I-iice cream,
Come and get some i-iice cream,
Cold and cooling
If you need the smoothing!”

What ever your heart may desire…

Well, then you’ve come to the wrong place
But we do like to cater to the buyer
In this old historic space
They commonly call
The Market Hall

Harbour Area

A slow boat to Sweden
Or a catamaran to Tallinn
If you are looking for Eden
Well, maybe
But you better be all in!

Mundane Monday

“Who can say what astonishments are hidden inside the most mundane being?”

Colour Coordination

If you want to make a statement
You need to be colour coordinated
Dressed in matching outfits
With all of your surroundings

Apples

“How about them apples, then?”
Asked Sven

Sinking his teeth into one
He knew he had just won

“I’ll give this a full ten!”

Mayweeds

The flowerbeds’ seed
Looks like weed
But, pretty indeed
Let’s call them
Mayweeds
Even, if it’s summer!

Mushrooms

mushrooms-1

Look what the rain brought:
Mushrooms, and not store bought
Popping up from the ground
Making a squishing sound
And waiting to be found

Closed Gates

“What can be found,
behind door number two?”
Surely a question,
Answered only for a few
