November Rain for Daily Photo (two)

“The month of November makes me feel that life is passing more quickly.
In an effort to slow it down, I try to fill the hours more meaningfully.”
Henry Rollins

The familiar neighbourhood
Built from concrete and wood
Yesterday pretty in white
Now, well, it just ain’t right!

Snow cover was here to stay
But down poured the rain
On a November’s day
And washed it all away

Nature not too pretty
Need to say something witty
But to be honest
It all looks very shitty

Odd things hovering
Creeping and crawling
From under the covers
Where snow them hid
No closing the lid
They just keep coming!

Mundane Monday: Grey 2

“There’s something that’s really fun about the challenge of making the mundane funny, too, I think”
Jim Gaffigan

Grey

Grey may be mundane
Or the colour of a great dane
But it has no fame
And sometimes gets the blame

Grey for the ocean
Grey for the sky
Is this a dream
In black and white?

October Morning Frost for Daily Photo

Posted in Daily Photo

Hello October: Month of wellingtons and mackintoshes!

“But frost, like the crystallized dreams of autumn, began to coat the clearing with its sugar glaze.” Victoria Steele Logue, Redemption

October Morning Frost

Nature in pending status
Almost like being on hiatus
Leaves of multicolour
Covered with sugary frost
The misty air softly hovers
Over last night’s rain drops
Now frozen in their spots
A glimmer of sunlight
The only a reflection in sight
Soon enough the colour fades
The frost of rain only remains
And the Autumn turns
To Winter

Mundane Monday

“Oh, yet another Monday!”
She sighed heavily when

Through the looking glass
Call it a window, alas
Suburbia covered with mist
Possibly a thoughtful gift
By the weather gods
Playing a naughty trick

“Well, better get out there, and face whatever may fare!”
And off she went

Stubbornly,
Trying to put as many dents
Getting through Monday
Not another fun-day
Luckily,
Monday only happens
Once a week!

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki: Intro

This week’s World Wide Wednesday is visiting the town of Helsinki. A city way up north, where reindeer roam the streets, it snows in summer and people are rarely seen or heard of…

But seriously, a very nice summer city to visit, my former hometown and very clean, lush and sunny, except when it rains… And it does, a lot 😉 So welcome to Hel-sinki!

A stormy day by the Pool

They said the sun would shine
The weather would be just fine
So I will sit here
In my poolside chair
Enjoy the day not so fair
No matter if I like it
It’s no use fighting it
This is my holiday
On a not so sunny day!
