The Finnish Dream

If you dare to enter
You will soon be in plight
Because the center
Of each Finn’s existence
Is the calculated distance
From their neighbour
Preferably as far as the equator

Water

“I’m an instant star. Just add water and stir”
David Bowie

Sea Otter

“More water,
I need more water”

Said the sea otter
As he played with Flotter
Getting even more hotter

“Waiter,
Where is that damned water?
I made the order
At least ten minutes ago!”

Water

“I’m an instant star. Just add water and stir”

Sparkly

Sparkling tiny drops
Onto the leaf they popped

“Delivery here!
From the near by shop!
Your order as per requested,
Some freshly made rain drops”

“Drip drop
Drip drop…”

“This will not stop,
Before my ears will pop!
Damned pretty rain drops!”

“Drip drop
Drip drop…”

If the Shoe Fits

“I like Cinderella, I really do. She has a good work ethic.
I appreciate a good, hard-working gal. And she likes shoes.
The fairy tale is all about the shoe at the end, and I’m a big shoe girl”
Amy Adams

 

Little Red Riding Shoes

Meanwhile, in the deepest of forests, a young girl was on her way to the shoemakers house.

Hop, skip and a twirl,
Little Red Riding Shoes was about to hurl!
Too much fun, pardon the pun
Can cause a headache most foul
And make your stomach scream and growl!

To be continued…

The Evil Red Shoe Queen

“Mirror mirror on the wall
Am I still the evilest of them all?
And more precisely, are my shoes
The shiniest in the world?

The Red Shoe Queen demanded the mirror.

An image appeared into the mirror’s glass and with an evil grin responded:

“Undoubtedly, you are quite evil, my dearest Queen. But, there is another….”

The Queen stared at the mirror, wanting it to crack, from a mere look.

Full Moon

Fading,
Into the dark skies
Only thing remaining
Shadows and darkness

Only a little kiss!

Time for a competition:
Get set and start your ignition!
Row, row, row your boat
Down, down, down the moat!
And the winner?
Well, at least we are getting thinner!
