I am majestic
I prefer,
To stand alone

Two Year Anniversary on WordPress

Today, it has been two years since I started my blog Rantings of a Third Kind here on WordPress.

“A poem a day keeps the shrink at bay”, is a great guideline to follow and it is has been working for me at least!

My advice, in case you asked, to all you bloggers and wanna be writers out there, is to set yourself some time aside each day and if nothing else, pour your mind flow onto the paper or as it is in these modern days, in bits and bytes. I know this may sound like cliched advice, but it’s better to force yourself to a routine of writing rather than postponing it for one reason or another. I know there are always excuses as to why not, but in the end, if you have a passion for writing, the excuse are just that – excuses. And do not be afraid to publish, good or bad, it’s all good in the end.

“The past becomes a texture, an ambience to our present”

Night Fall

Standing tall
Before the night fall
Trying to stall
One minute more
Before the darkness
Consumes it all

Autumn Leaves

The colourful autumn leaves
Gently in the early morning light heave
Soon it will be eve
And the sun will take its leave
But no need to grieve
Just fall asleep and dream
For soon enough, an other day weaves

Holiday Dreams

Under the palm tree
Feeling totally free
Never mind
The thirty odd degrees

Frozen Lake

The set-up, looking quite fake
With all these, frosted snow flakes
Covering, the frozen lake
It may be a cliche
This, wintery display
But allow me to explain
Then you decide
If this scenery of open wide
Is something you find
Enchanting

Sunrise

Sunlight reflected
On the waters neglected
Coolly, projected

Misty Morning

Early morning
Mist adorning
This little town
For most, unknown

Thunder Clouds

Grey clouds, filling the skies
Before the early morning sunrise
And soon, falling rain, the earth will baptize

Room with a View

Open the window wide open
The view, more than you were hoping
In this place, in this scene
Like nothing, you have ever seen
