…Sooner or later
You are bound for the fate of
Winter!
Oh the splinter
On my side!

A big white ball
In the sky of the fall
The shadows growing tall
Myself growing small
But who can you call
And it’s no use to stall

September Pink for Daily Photo

"By all these lovely tokens September days are here,
With summer's best of weather And autumn's best of cheer."
Helen Hunt Jackson

September Pink for Daily Photo

A sunny reminder
Of the days of summer
But then we found out
It was actually September
Oh, what a bummer!

Oh well, any ways,
As long as there is no snow
And the winds won’t blow
We won’t have a cow!

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!

“A good photograph is knowing where to stand” Ansel Adams

Velogatti 

The people stood and stared
The driver just waved and glared
Proud of his shiny white steed

“Is it a bike?
Is it a car?
No,
It’s a Velogatti,
A bike for the smart-ty!”

Panorama

In a panorama
There is no drama
Cool and calm before you
Birds flying above in two
Enjoy the cool and blue

Their yellow heads raised
And feeling quite amazed
As their brightness is praised

Disoriented

Light headed and giddy
Walking in and upside down city
Perhaps we are in Sidney?

Pick the little yellow ride
And with a smile away
You will smoothly glide
