“When in Finland, sit like the Finns do”
Take a Seat in Cafe
Cafe in a pink house
Somewhere, thereabouts
Sit down, have a coffee
With a bun, laced with toffee

“Your photography is a record of your living, for anyone who really sees” Paul Strand
Blue
Many a beautiful sunrises
Too many gorgeous sunsets
Which is the one to choose
Could not, so I let it loose
The photos in number of three
I have picked to peruse for thee
Enjoy them all, why don’t you
I surely did, even the blue

“Boxing is real easy. Life is much harder” Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Life is a Boxing Match
The gloves are on
The arena awaits you
From the illusion of winning
Your head is spinning
The chanting getting louder
You’re feeling prouder
The plan was a clean fight
No hitting below the belt
The deal fitting your own self
No more time for flight
The crowd is cheering
You are leering
At the ding of the gong
The fight is on
Dancing around
Pulling punches
No one going down
The referee announces
No one is winning
It is time
To up the ante
The gloves come off
The game now on
You start to scoff
Your mind’s set only on the con
Spitting out words of slander
Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander
Hair being torn
Nails like thorns
Feeling the scorn
Scratching, screaming
Ending only in
Real blood and tearing
No one is winning
It is time
For plan C

“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

“Life is mundane without the new and unexpected. I guess that has been and continues to be my downfall… I’m constantly searching…”
Adria J. Cimino
Left and Right
Passing,
The right side
Moving,
Towards the left side
Which side?
It’s really
A matter of perspective
The other right
Or the other left
The mind subjective
Do I have to choose
What if I loose
What is good for the gander
May not be good for the goose
Better then
To stay in the middle
Because
In the end
Life is a riddle

“It’s a cute little studio apartment that has just what I need: a bed, a couch, a table, a chair, and a coffee-maker.” ― Shawn Lukas
Dreaming in Colour
In the middle of the night
Just when you thought you missed that flight
Just when you thought it could not get more duller
Dreams vivid, and in full colour
A seat, in summer, poolside
All the nightmares, can now, subside

“Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.”
—Roger Caras
Can’t be bothered
Can’t be bothered
Laying low, like an otter
Just had me some water
Because outside is much hotter
And I really don’t like

“You don’t take a photograph, you make it” Ansel Adams
All You Seek
So many to choose from
I don’t even know
Where they all come from
But I guess it is the how
I am the only one to blame
If some of them gets the fame
This is what I chose this week
Hope it is what you all seek
