‘Up yours.’ “

Winter Memories for Daily Photo

Cold Path

A walk in the snow
Was going quite slow
Footfalls immediately covered
Where the cold wind blows

Those who sang
“Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow”
Did probably never their nose blow

For, a runny breathing apparatus
Will soon bring up the stomach flatus
And this will bring a halt status
To your little afternoon practice

But never mind
Just trying to rewind
Out here in winter wonderland
Hoping not too freeze
Where I literally stand

Night Wish

Wish, upon a star
The elves would bring
A big cookie jar
A reward up to par
Would be a tune played
On the guitar

Faded Holiday Memory

A faded snapshot
Of a place, the time forgot
This was no holiday, store bought
Rather a memory
Every child should have got

Sunday before X-mas for Daily Photo (three)

Posted in Daily Photo: Photography and Poetry

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison

Sunday before X-mas

In a comfortable winter’s sled
A holiday heart, glowing in red
Cheer and joy, for a while it will spread
No one knows, what here it lead
Or where it will next head
So each night, before you go to bed
Whisper a wish to keep it fed

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison

Sunday before X-mas

Icing on the red vines
Blurring, all the straight lines
Nature’s tableau refined
Like an artist’s work, defined

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison

Sunday before X-mas

Peeking behind the closed curtains
Heart beating, in uncertain anticipation
What mysteries, lie behind the window
On a Sunday, filled with falling snow

Feathery Flecks for Daily Photo (two)

“Wintery day,
On my horse
A frozen shadow.”
― Bashō Matsuo

Feathery Flecks 

Still pretty never the less
Like a princess’ dress
In an icy press
Quite the nature’s success

“Wintery day,

Feathery Flecks 

After the frozen night
When finally came light
Little feathery flecks
Against the window pressed

“Wintery day,
On my horse
A frozen shadow.”
― Bashō Matsuo

Feathery Flecks 

Forming and reforming
Sitting pretty, performing
My boring window adorning
But way too soon
To water transforming

One Day in December for Daily Photo (two)

Posted in Daily Photo: Photography, Poetry

“December’s wintery breath is already clouding the pond,
frosting the pane, obscuring summer’s memory…”
― John Geddes

One Day in December 

The sun is quickly fading, into the horizon
The sky turning grey, all colours soon to fade
