Bikes of Helsinki
“I haven’t been everywhere, but it’s on my list.”

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki
Bikes with motors are fine
When you want to avoid that grind
But a manual pedaller
May be a great leveller
When your pulse needs elevating
And your blood, circulating

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki
Where there is a lamppost
There is a will
The best parking host
For a bike to stay still

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki
City bikes of yellow
For every gal and fellow
Driving by and waving hello
Before we break for jell-o

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki
I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my bike
Snow, hail or rain trickle
I am none too fickle
I want to ride my bike

Mundane Monday
“To bring the sublime into the mundane is the greatest challenge there is.”
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Chocolate bars on a Rainy Day
When it rains and pours,
Thunderstorm with lightning
Can be very frightening
All the outside flickering
Windy draught, from all doors
Better not stand there shivering
Get under the covers
Think, what wonders you can discover
In a big, big chocolate bar!

Old Tree
Ye old tree
How I envy thee
Growing strong
With a life very long
Even the birds
Singing you a song
What could go wrong?
Well,
Give me a chainsaw, and I’ll show you

Made of Wood
A strong support structure
Fitted into the architecture
For home sweet home
Built in the suburban zone

Weed
“It’s just weed,
No use it, to further feed”
“But it’s purple and pretty,
Wouldn’t killing it be a pity?”

Asphalt
Rainfall
On the asphalt
Like bitter tears
Filled with salt
Oh bummer!
It’s no one’s fault
So just put the blame
On summer
