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!

Stormy Weather over there…
But maybe not here?

There is some storm front on the horizon
With some bad weather arising
From a snapper’s point of view, quite mesmerizing
For the natives up there, possibly poison
But as they say, it’s quite typical for the season

Toupee blowing Weather

The wind factor so high
It would make Trump’s toupee fly
This is a time for one of Takei’s “Oh Mys”

“Helsinki isn’t all that bad. It’s a very nice city, and it’s cold really only in wintertime” Linus Torvalds

A Visit to Kamppi: Three

Artistic or snobbery?
Or just plain highway robbery?
Beauty, art and sound
Can only truly be found
In the eye of the beholder
In that very special folder

A Visit to Kamppi: Two

When left is nothing more to shop
Many of the passengers at the bus stop
Eagerly into a transit will pop
Keeping a distance to the strangers
Good Lord knows what dangers
May lurk behind a simple “hello”

A Visit to Kamppi: One

A trip to the City Centre
Can be an extreme adventure
For a ‘gal from the suburbs
Can easily get into trouble
With many a temptations
Luring in the odd location

“In the full light of day, I don’t want to think about the sunset” Shakira

Sunset 

Something wonderful happened
Before it was time to go to bed
A sunset of the colour red
As if the skies had bled
So I stayed outside instead
And watched the beautiful sunset

“We can only appreciate the miracle of a sunrise if we have waited in the darkness”

Sunrise 

A special moment
In the month of January
For people up North
This will sustain their sanity
For a little while longer
As the sun is getting stronger
In the midst of the darkness
A ray of sunlight
To keep up the good fight

“With Saturday morning cartoons, you’ve got to start at 6 A.M., right?” Jim Rash

Saturday (Daily Photo)

It’s Saturday
What more can I say?
All is quiet in our little suburbia
After all,
We would not want to disturb ‘ya 😉
So just sit down, relax
The weekend is time for some slacks

It’s Sunday
What more can I say?
All is quiet in our little suburbia
After all,
We would not want to disturb ‘ya 😉
So just sit down, relax
The weekend is time for some slacks
Before you know it
It will be over…
