Watching,
A most magical transformation
From buds to full bloom
Or was it just,
My imagination?

By the blue sea and mountains
On the islands of thousands
Saving your spouses

Standing tall and proud
In the windy surroundings loud
Sometimes lonely
Sometimes with a crowd
Sometimes under the blue skies
Sometimes under the clouds

Freaky for Mundane Monday (one)

Posted in Mundane Monday : Photography /Poetry /Humour

“I now find magic in the mundane.
I’m also more creative –
better able to look beyond the obvious and
come up with new story angles.”
Deborah Norville

Freaky for Mundane Monday 

eerie-1

Eerie
Totally eerie
Surroundings quite blurry
In the small village
So don’t set on pillage
And acting the dare-y
There may be a spillage
Of something scary
In the tiniest of villages

Freaky for Mundane Monday 

village-1

A village
Revealed by the rising sun
A tiny little village, pardon the pun
Where life lived in slow motion
None daring to raise any commotion
Not even the sound of a locomotion

Riding through the centre
Without much notion
Happy may they be
As far as you and I can see
But be careful there not to flee
Or you may end up crazy

Seat Sunday (20.11.2016) two

Posted in Seat Sunday: Photography, Poetry and Humour

“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet”
Napoleon Bonaparte

Mini Seat 

Try to fit on it
Just casually sit on it
It may not be a fit
But you can relax
For a little bit

“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet”
Napoleon Bonaparte

Mini Seat 

A mini seat
Is quite neat
But,
It won’t carry
A large fleet
