“I wish you a tolerable Thursday. That’s all any of us can hope for” April Winchell
Thursday (Daily Photo 2016-01-28) One
Thursday
Not a pretty day
The lack of sun
Cannot be fun
The icy cold mist
Does nothing to enlist
To the fan base
Of this common day
Also known
As Thursday
Oh, but look!
There might be hope
In the horizon
The sun is arising!
All hail
It’s Thursday!
The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Optimistic
This week show us something you’re optimistic about, or perhaps a talisman that helps you stay positive and hopeful, regardless of what life (and the weather!) throws your way.
“My optimism wears heavy boots and is loud” Henry Rollins
Optimistic (The Daily Post) Two
Sunshine on a winter’s day
The nature’s showing a halo
The cold and snow to fade
And soon, it will be May

“It’s just another Manic Monday” The Bangles
Manic Monday? (Daily Photo) One
Is this another Manic Monday?
Or just another January Fun-day?
It’s six o’clock already, but I need to drive steady. The roads are iced and if I drive too fast, I will get sliced. As usual, after the weekend, Monday follows and so does the mania and the panic. Rushing here and rushing there. A never ending story of this writer’s life. Or does it apply to everyone?
Just when I thought it was safe to say, it’s going to be a peaceful day, all hell breaks loose. So who cooked the goose this time? All was fine, for a moment at least, but someone unleashed the beast. And yet again, another fire to fight! Ah this poor girl’s plight.
Several hours later, when once again, I have turned into a hater, of Mondays, the sun has come out to play! I’m secretely hoping it is here to stay! I rush out, leaving my gloves and coat behind. Never mind! The air is much warmer now. After all, only minus degrees of two, so what have I got to loose!
Reaching the seashore, the sunrise to score. Enjoying a few seconds, because the sun beckoned and then… it hits me. The coldest of winds, blowing in my face. Oh how I really hate… Winter! GRRRR.

Fabulous Friday 2016-01-15 : One

A snowy sunny day
In the land far far away
Up North, let us pray!
Children came out to play
Even adults came forth
After all
What else is there to say
Because yet another
Fabulous and sunny Friday
Has found its way

“Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the complicated simple, awesomely simple, that’s creativity” Charles Mingus
Sitting in My usual Place
I was sitting in my usual place today
Watching the clouds changing shape in many ways
Caught up in nature’s gorgeous display
I almost forgot my own part to play
I finally tore myself away for a moment
And snapped a few for your enjoyment

“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet” Napoleon Bonaparte
Sitting in Cyprus, Part Two
A single seat?
Or one designed for two?
In this heat
Who could want to be glued
To someone else’s skin
With clothes this thin

Sitting in Cyprus, Part One
A stroll in the heat of summer
Looking for a place to recover
Taverns and restaurants beckoning
A cold drink for thirst lessening
