“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water”
Rabindranath Tagore
Pool Waters
Under the scorching sun
Time for some poolside fun
Diving into the turquoise
Joining the local tortoises

Rabindranath Tagore
Nightly Waters
After the sun has set
It’s time to get wet
Dipping into the dark waters
We can pretend to be sea otters

“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water”
Rabindranath Tagore
Monochromatic Waters
A nature’s monochromatic sketch
Close to the water’s edge
Rock and liquid merging
Becoming each others’ version

Icy Waters
“Wanna go skinny dipping?”
She asked me
Shedding all her clothes
While into the icy pool she dove

Rabindranath Tagore
Blue Waters
Cool, blue, inviting
Feeling myself sliding
Into the water’s embrace
Sensing an upside down frown
Forming on my face

Autumn Days for Daily Photo
“There is a time in the last few days of summer when the ripeness of autumn fills the air.”
Rudolfo Anaya
Ripples
Ripples on the water
Ripples on your skin
Feeling like a sea otter
Who just wants to swim

“Haven’t you felt a peculiar sort of worry about the chair in your living room that no one sits in?”
Nicholson Baker
A Seat Poolside
Sitting by the turquoise liquid
Can be very addictive
No mere alcohol
Can make you fall
Like the blue waters
Without any borders
Sitting poolside
With a thin wall to divide
Poolside
It cannot be denied
You may be cool or a louse
But just get out of the house
And into the pool!

A Seat Poolside
Poolside
It cannot be denied
The best seats in the house
So bring your friends and spouse
Sitting by the turquoise liquid
Can be very addictive
No mere alcohol
Can make you fall
Like the blue waters
Without any borders
Sitting poolside
With a thin wall to divide

August Days in Espoo for Daily Photo
“August, the summer’s last messenger of misery, is a hollow actor” Henry Rollins
Ripples on the Water
Soon, September comes with sniffles
Thought of that gives me wrinkles
Looking at the water’s surface filled with ripples
As it smiles with all its dimples
Life in August, smooth and simple
And today, is Friday, so just whistle

Shopping
Gun’s travel log, stardate 10.08.2015, 02.00 PM (GMT +3)
Oh shop-keep, shop-keep?
Can you possibly assist me?
You see, I have all this money
Burning a hole in my pocket
No, I am not just being funny
Even though I ate a lot of chocolate
So pull out the inventory
And soon you will have a story
Of the crazy middle aged lady
Who bought your store empty
It was time to hit the shops. Our first stop was a gallery specializing in leather painted goods such as sandals, wallets, handbags and jewellery. Luckily the shop carried the “slender size 42” (EU size) in stock and I managed to get a pair of sandals into my possession in exchange for a fair amount of Euros. And by the way, I managed to get out of the shop with just one purchase, which in itself, is a record 😉
PS. A woman can never have to many shoes!
Venturing onwards to the shopping streets of many. Browsing, drooling, pondering over the bling blings, shoes – but of course and oh yes, if possible to find one more handbag for my collection of plenty.
Here are a few shops to check out if you are in the vicinity:
And some more…
