Hashtag Hell

“Welcome
to hashtag hell”

She said and into the pit fell

“Yes, that is brimstone you smell
Do not on the what ifs dwell
You are here yourself to sell
Awarded, if you do it well!”

She added

“Otherwise
Your demise
Will be,
Quite precise
And, you’ll become
The one
You despise!”

And with an evil laugh,
She was gone

Quote a Week Tuesday

For this week’s quote of the week, I have chosen some very wise words by Anne Frank:

“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment
before starting to improve the world.”

Mundane Monday

“I now find magic in the mundane. I’m also more creative – better able to look beyond the obvious and come up with new story angles.” Deborah Norville

Abandoned on Monday

“No buses today”

“Why?”

“Because, it’s Monday”

“So, I am just supposed to stay?”

“Well, you stay and play,
Or call for a taxi
And a higher fee pay!”

“What if I simply pray?”

“No use,
The buses won’t come today”

“Why?”

“Because, it’s Monday!”

Red Light on Monday

Don’t run
Against the red light
You might
Get a sight
If the coppers
Are watching
In their choppers!

4 red-light

Sunshine on Monday

Look, who decided to show up
And here I was starting
To get all wound up!

Quickly, up from the tub
Grab my favourite cup
And outside,
With a huff and puff
I go
And none too slow!

Before, that is,
My favourite show
On TV is up!

Rain on Monday

The snail’s predictions
Done, with convictions
Brought us destruction
With a set of storm and rain
Falling heavily,
Onto, the open plane

Dark Clouds on Monday

Ominous and eerie
Even though, in theory
It was still summer

Feelings of weary
Vision getting blurry
Starting to worry
As the weather
Was getting glummer

Drive for The Daily Post

“The cars we drive say a lot about us” Alexandra Paul

Drive for The Daily Post

They said I couldn’t
You said I shouldn’t
I thought I wouldn’t

But, now
Fading spots I see
In the rear view mirror
As my car and me
Down the road terror
Plough

Finally
Here I am
Where ever this is
Easily
I did drive
So do give me
A high five

Day Ten: “Architecture” — Go Monochrome

From the geometry of skyscrapers to the ironwork on historical buildings, there are many opportunities to capture the beauty and complexity of architecture.

Monochromatic (WP Developing Your Eye I)

“The world is in color, you have to work at black and white.” – Andrew Maclean

Old School

The old house, quite charismatic
Standing tall, very melodramatic
It comes with a complete attic
All painted, in monochromatic
But still very enigmatic

Cloud Building

Is it a mirage?
A clever camouflage?
What ever the cause
You can only applause
