Rain on the Pavement (two)

“I always like walking in the rain,
so no one can see me crying.”
― Charlie Chaplin

Rain on the Pavement

Out of focus
Out of mind
Just a little hocus-pocus
And I am ready to rewind
The days of sunshine
Slowly, but surely
Entering my mind

Rain on the Pavement

Rain, rain, falling down
Onto the pavement
There is no slowing down
My face, now with one sentiment
– A permanently painted frown

Rain on the Pavement

When it rains,
It really pours
Coming in,
From all of the windows
And most of the doors
Keep your feet dry
Stay off the floors
There is no stopping
The rain drops are popping
No place secure
Just try to endure
It will be over
Before you can say
“Red rover, red rover”

Wish

Dear gods of weather
Hear my plead, my wish for the better
Please, release this wintery tether
And unleash the summery breeze of feather
For this view of now gives no pleasure
These times are no fun nor leisure
So dearies, this is no order nor push of pressure
Just send us that damned warm weather!

Black Friday; Finland Style

Black Friday Finland Style

darkness

“Bright light, bright light!”

“Oh my God, what is that?”

“Holy hell, is it a flying saucer?”

The masses had come out from their homes and workplaces staring and pointing up at the unidentified bright light high up in the sky. Some rumours had circulated, stating Finland had fallen under attack by UFOs.

In the corner of the street, a lonesome believer was preaching:

“The end of the world as we know it, is upon us!”

That day, was the first day of the month March.

Several months earlier:

It was the beginning of October. The land had fallen under darkness. As if an evil warlock had cast a spell. Sour faces all around, no expressions, as if away blurred. Hardly any sound could be heard. People on the streets, dragging their feet. The lust for life, all sucked out.
First of March

An unidentified source of light had appeared in the skies.

“The sun”, someone said, as the onlookers stood before her, bewildered.

“It is called the sun” she stated again with a smile.

But the other just shook their heads in disbelief.

Still, turning their collective faces towards “the sun”. And, as by a wave of a magic wand, the crowd closed their eyes in unison and enjoyed that sacred moment. A collective sigh of content was the only sound heard.

For who knew, how long this would last…

The blown leaves make bat-shapes,

November Sky 

Clouds are breaking
The storm is fading
The shiny bright light
Has won the fight!

November Sky 

November, November
Finally a day to remember
The sun has lit the skies
Even for a little while
Before the daylight dies
And it will be dark again
Just hoping, it won’t rain!

November Sky 

Sometimes
When looking up
Into the skies
An odd phenomena
Catches your eyes
They say,
It’s called, “the sun”

November Day

It may not be a classic
And not so dramatic
But when lit up:
A snowman made of plastic
Looks quite fantastic!

November Day 

Woke up this morning
To a weather not so boring
A big round shiny object
Was not something to be expected
Yes, it shone on for a few hours
Turned the faces off from sours
Now I say bye bye
While looking up into the sky
Hoping that tomorrow
Another shiny curve ball will throw!
