World Wide Wednesday in Brazil

by-the-pool

“We travel, some of us forever, to seek other places, other lives, other souls.” – Anais Nin

By the Pool 

Storm chasing
By the pool
Just because
I’m cool
Some say
What a fool
But I’m not
Breaking any rules
Just looking
For nature’s jewel

With a heart that’s racing
The moment embracing
The storm, finally raging
And I,
I am singing

bird-watching

“We travel, some of us forever, to seek other places, other lives, other souls.” – Anais Nin

Bird Watching

“The tables are turned”
The little bird chirped
As she sat
On the latch
…People watching

bee

“We travel, some of us forever, to seek other places, other lives, other souls.” – Anais Nin

Bee Acrobatics

The little bee
Dancing around the tree
Getting on her groove
Showing us some moves

Out of the blue
On the cue
She started singing:

“I am limber by nature
One of the most gorgeous creatures
Just because I’m pretty
And possibly quite witty
Do not hate me
Or I will sting thee

slow-boat

“We travel, some of us forever, to seek other places, other lives, other souls.” – Anais Nin

Slow Boat down the River

On a slow boat
On this wide moat
Did bring a tote
Filled with some oat
To feed the goat…

“Wait a minute, wait a minute?
River, oat, goat?
What’s the catch in this?”

“Well, it’s for me to know
And you to find out!”

roof-top

“We travel, some of us forever, to seek other places, other lives, other souls.” – Anais Nin

Roof Top

Sitting on the roof top

Why?

Because it was time for a stop
Switch gears, and make a swap

Now

Laying around like a blob
Thinking(?)
I need to pick up that mop

Never mind
It’s just a job
I can easily do
Tomorrow

biker dude

“We travel, some of us forever, to seek other places, other lives, other souls.” – Anais Nin

Biker Dude

Down the street
Engine setting the beat
No time to tweet
Not even, for any sweets
“Got some pals to meet
And,
Dry my soaking feet!”

“I see that it is by no means useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new” Jules Verne

Close to Night Fall

When the night falls
And bedtime calls…

Wait, we’re on holiday
No one sleeps on a holiday
Just drinks some coffee
With a mint of or a toffee
Awake you will remain
Even if your brain
Will go a little cuckoo

Enjoying the Solitude

A game of solitaire
In the fresh open air
Solitude and silence
This place, is priceless

“I see that it is by no means useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new” Jules Verne

On the River Negro

On a slow boat
Down the moat…

(The needle on the record hops with a screeching sound)
“Sorry, wrong track!”

On a slow little ship
Down the River Negro we slide
It’s just a short trip
Into the beyond and open wild

Fishes and dolphins
Jump up from the waters
The mermaids a calling
So lock up your fathers
No place for golfing
Only a trek for the trotters

On a slow little ship
Down the River Negro we slide
It’s just a short trip
Into the beyond and open wild
