Reflections, One

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“Christmas is a season not only of rejoicing but of reflection”
Winston Churchill

Reflections

Reflections on the walls
Reflections on the windows
The sunsets and sunrises
Reflected on each surface

Magic

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“A dream doesn’t become reality through magic;
it takes sweat, determination and hard work”
Colin Powell

Magic

Like a flick
Of the light switch
Like scratching
A really bad itch
I had started writing
Once more
Just like that
Just like magic
I found my muse
And I did it

Seconds

“Even if it turns out that time travel is impossible,
it is important that we understand why it is impossible”
Stephen Hawking

Seconds

Heart beating
Time is running out
Only a few seconds left
For the ultimate request
Using a different route
Feels like cheating

Finally reaching
My own hideout
No time for rest
Only doing my best
No time for tryout
Parameter breaching

Safely in my blue box
Punching the clock
Time starts moving
Seconds removing
Going backwards
Against standards

They said
It couldn’t be done
But did I bet
And know I am gone
Back in time
Trying to find
…My future

Reflections, Two

“Style is a reflection of your attitude and your personality”
Shawn Ashmore

Reflections

Through the looking glass
Reflections from present and past
Mystified images mirrored
In your mind’s eye forever

Sleepy Kitty

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“Sleepy Kitty
Happy Kitty
Purr, purr, purr”

Sleepy Kitty

Happy with my kitty
So I wrote this little ditty
Why don’t you sing along
To the tune of this familiar song

Soft kitty, warm kitty
Purring on my lap
Sleepy kitty, happy kitty
Why don’t I too take a nap

My little ball of fur
Listening to you purr
Life is kind of a blur
But this is how I prefer

Beloved

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“Every beloved object
is the center point of a paradise”
Novalis

Beloved

Mismatching socks and messy hair
Carefully watching, trying not to stare
Sitting in your favourite chair
Chewing on your meal without a care
My eyes fixed, I still feel the flare
Whom better with my life to share

Farewell

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“Farewell, fair cruelty”
William Shakespeare

Farewell

Farewell, good bye, so long
Everyone try to stay strong
Sadness, drama, comedy
Who said saying farewell was easy?

Farewell may be forever
But never say never
Our world is still round
And what is sometimes lost
Usually, can be found
After all, we are all bound
In this tiny part of universe
Our paths may once again cross
May we remember this verse

Farewell, good bye, so long
Consider life a song
Keep chanting and stay strong
Old friends may soon come along

Graffiti Porvoo Style

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“It’s Porvoo style – whoomph whoomph, whoomph, whoomph – Porvoo style!”

Graffiti Porvoo Style

I’m spraying my graffiti
Where ever it fits me
On the walls of suburbia
Bringing a sense of hysteria
There is no mystery
Of who I am
Just read my life’s history
Come and catch me if you can

Upside Down or Opposite Day

Posted in Throwback Thursday: Treasures from the archives

“This is not the rhyming song!”

Upside Down or Opposite Day

Chocolate as a dietary measure
Which can be the ultimate pleasure
To get the same effect
From this heavenly confect
You would by eating a carrot

Oh don’t listen to the parrot!

At least double the amount
No no you don’t have to count
Per each pleasurable bite
When enjoying this healthiest of delights

Chocolate is the answer
Never mind what the question was!
