Seen from a bird’s–eye view
Down the watery avenue
Blue and even more blue

“Sailing, sailing, over the Bounty Bay”

7 Days of Nature Photo Challenge: Day Two: Sailing

The sun on my back
The wind in my sails
The gentle tap
Against the rails

This is…
Heaven

“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water” Rabindranath Tagore

7 Days of Nature Photo Challenge: Day One: On the Rocks

Against the smoothed rocks
Is the water happily splashing
High in the air go flying my crocks
When I’m barefoot in the sand dashing

Close to the water’s edge
I once again my allegiance pledge
Wowing, this year my toe to dip
Even if it means biting the lip

Come high hell or cold water
Because it may never get hotter
In the ocean I will swim
Even if my eyesight will dim

After all, it is Spring Time!

“A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy?”
Albert Einstein

A Seat fit for a Queen

A royal chair look-alike
A regular seat in disguise
A very clever ploy
For this seatly decoy
