Red for Mundane Monday

“I didn’t like mundane life” Jeanne Calment

Red Eyes

Glowing red hot streaks of light
Staring, still scared to lose my sight
Instincts kicking in: Fight or flight

Getting closer and closer
Movement slower and slower
Breathing lower and lower

Questions, filling my mind
What kind of monsters do I find
Will they be bad or will they be kind

“Well, guess there is only one way to find out”
She said out loud
And then, she opened the box…

Sunset for Daily Photo

Sunset,
On a rainy day
Setting,
Across the ocean bay
Creating,
A pleasant display

Seat Sunday (2016-07-24)

“When in Cyprus, sit like the cypriots do”

Sitting, People Watching

On the seaside
By the roadside
As time slowly
Passes me by

Watching
Observing
Recording

Conversations,
Word exchanges
Life

Of the passers-by

Seat Sunday (2016-07-24)

“When in Cyprus, sit like the cypriots do”

Sitting on the Curve

As I am
Sitting on the curve
And watching
The cars swerve
It’s getting difficult
To keep my nerve

Seat Sunday (2016-07-24)

“When in Cyprus, sit like the cypriots do”

Sitting with lots of Stuff

It’s meal time
But, the table
Is not fine
Lots of stuff
Laying about
With a huff
Giving a shout

“Oi, you!
Get here
Ass in tow
Clear your grime!”

“Didn’t you hear the chime?
It’s nearly din din time,
And, my patience
Is running low
And, as far as I know
These ‘antiques’
Are just for show”

“So,
Unless you got
Something eatable
In that pot
Off with the lot
I have to put
Some grub
On the table!”

“Shut up,
Sit down
And enjoy
Your meal!”

“Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow, that I shall say good night till it be morrow” William Shakespeare

Good Night from Suburbia Daily Photo

A good night to One and All!

Wishes,
That the sky on you won’t fall
That the neighbour won’t eat your meatball
That the cat a mouse inside won’t haul
That the kids won’t steal your football
That the computer an update won’t install
And,
That in your dreams you will have a ball

So,
A very good night to One and All!

Mundane Monday

“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

Abandoned on Monday

“No buses today”

“Why?”

“Because, it’s Monday”

“So, I am just supposed to stay?”

“Well, you stay and play,
Or call for a taxi
And a higher fee pay!”

“What if I simply pray?”

“No use,
The buses won’t come today”

“Why?”

“Because, it’s Monday!”

Red Light on Monday

Don’t run
Against the red light
You might
Get a sight
If the coppers
Are watching
In their choppers!

Sunshine on Monday

Look, who decided to show up
And here I was starting
To get all wound up!

Quickly, up from the tub
Grab my favourite cup
And outside,
With a huff and puff
I go
And none too slow!

Before, that is,
My favourite show
On TV is up!

Rain on Monday

The snail’s predictions
Done, with convictions
Brought us destruction
With a set of storm and rain
Falling heavily,
Onto, the open plane
