“Mondays are mundane, like Tuesdays minus 24 hours.

Flowers

Bright and shiny
With colours so lively
Lighting up the mood daily
That’s why I am
Smiling so shyly

Elevator Views

Higher and higher
Up the high riser
Like a race car driver
In this scenic elevator

Speed is getting faster
Closer up the rafter
Feeling the adventure
And the ultimate pleasure

Blue Skies chorus by Irving Berlin

“Mondays are mundane, like Tuesdays minus 24 hours.
” 

Blue Skies

The sun in the sky
Shining so bright
Feeling so high
What a delight

Peace on my mind
Starting to unwind
Future defined
Ever so fine

“Blue days
All of them gone
Nothing but blue skies
From now on”

“Better three hours too soon than a minute too late” William Shakespeare

Time (SL WEEK 31)

Oh, how time flies
In front of
My very eyes
When sitting still
On the wing
Of an aeroplane

“When in Vienna, sit on a comfy sofa”

On a Sofa in Vienna (Seat Sunday 2016-02-07)

When weary from your travels
And the day slowly starts to unravel
Better answer to the beckoning
When to its seat it is welcoming
At this hour it surely is permitted
A true respit for the wicked

Feeling beat
Take a seat
It has your number
Fall into a slumber
In the bosom
Of the softest of cushions

And have a good night’s sleep

Caturday 2016-02-06

In honour of Caturday and all cats everywhere

A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere” Groucho Marx

Ode to Freakish Felines

Freakishly feline
Or a soft purring ball
How easy to unwind
Soon to a sleep fall
Hypnotized
By those wide eyes
The limber steps
Command respect
You can never own them
Just borrow for a while
But rest assured, the little gems
Will leave you in big smiles
