“The true work of art
is but a shadow
of the divine perfection”
Michelangelo
Shadow Play
Shadowy Self Reflection
Crouching in the shadows
Between the flowers of the meadow
In the darkness there is no sorrow
Just some time to borrow

Day Six: “Solitude” — The Rule of Thirds
Today, let’s capture solitude: the state of being alone, or a lonely and uninhabited place. What does this word look like to you?
“Solitude standing” Suzanne Vega
One Winter’s Day
Break time
Nothing but time
On my hands
No other plans
Cool sea breeze
My hands freeze
Trying not to sneeze
Uttering, “please”
Let this break
Be over soon!

Mundane Monday
“As far as my favorite sites, I do a lot of mundane stuff on line because I travel so much” Bruce Campbell
Shadow Play
Shadows in play
On the walls they display
Trying to make heads and tails
But all attempts fail
Searching for a clue
Is very hard to do
Like a needle in a hay…
…stack
You cannot get a fact
Of what it really is
So please
Just enjoy the show!

“I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike” Queen
Ride a Bike (Daily Photo)
Ride, ride, ride your bike
A bicycle or a trike
What ever distance you like
Feelings of a childlike
Life passing by a dreamlike
When you are riding, your bike

“March, when days are getting long,
Let thy growing hours be strong
To set right some wintry wrong.”
~Caroline May, 1887
Blue and White
Blue skies and snowy white waters
The sun burning ever more hotter
To bring the winter to its slaughter

Blue Shadows
The March sun high up in the sky
Painting tall shadows with a blue dye
Across the snowy bed letting them lie

Photo challenge for PhoTrabloggers Mundane Monday
“Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.” George Eliot
The Odds and End of an October’s Day, Part Two
The odds and ends
This theme extends
Another mundane Monday
It’s not just an other week day
But a time for little things
Which much joy will bring

+ PHOTO CHALLENGE: (Extra)ordinary
In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “(Extra)ordinary.”
“I never considered myself a lucky person. I’m the most extraordinary pessimist. I truly am”
Christopher Nolan
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
