“When it rains, it pours”

Rainy Suburbia (Daily Photo)

“Welcome to sunny suburbia!”
They said

“Stay a while, take a load off”
They said

“It’s pretty and white, the sun shining so bright!”
They said

“Bah Humbug!”
I said

Sounded more, like a tall tale
Or urban a legend, set to fail!

As the rain came pouring down
And not a single dry spot could be found
I felt like the sideshow clown
On my face, an permanent painted frown

“Oh, well, when in Rome…”
I thought

Sitting in my recliner
Cozy, lazy and bundled up
Sipping on my warm cider
I held up my cup
Saluted towards the window
For all the daring weirdos
Coming out from their hides
And venturing to cold outside

And I said:
“Cheers!”

Fluffy, Soft, White (Daily Photo 2016-01-10)

Fluffy, soft and white
In the softest of light
Tiny jewels flickering
Waking the slumbering
Into a bright white blossom
In the snow as light as cotton

“Bright light, Bright light!” The Gremlins

Lights in the Window

Colourful aren’t they?
Pretty too, wouldn’t you say?
Feeling kind of comfortable, are you?
Well, just follow the colorful hue
Step into our humble house
We may even have a mouse
Sit down, take a load off
A cup of hot
We’ll bring you on the dot

snow mummies

“On my way here I passed a local cinema and it turned out you were expecting me after all, for the billboards read: The Mummy Returns.” Margaret Thatcher

Snow Mummies

Uncovered from the snow
In the dark night they glow
Small black stones for eyes
Only afraid of the sunrise
Melting their worst enemy
Cold weather the only remedy
Sitting pretty for now
Until the earth they will bow

Cozy, comfy, homey
Life is running slowly
The view today snowy
The wind outside blowy
Staying inside,
Without a sorry

Snowy Day

Snow on the ground
And everywhere found
Even the angel got drowned
And now wearing a frown
