I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It’s the only way to live
In cars”

Jealous of my Boogie

“Don’t be jealous of my boogie”
The older wise Mercedes said to the little new car
Who had turned red when trying with the old one to spar
And found out, it could not drive quite as far
After all, the vintage model was the star

Goldilocks and the Three Yellow Lorries

Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Goldilocks. She went for a walk in the neighbourhood. Pretty soon, she came upon a parking lot and noticed three yellow lorries.

She stepped into the biggest one:

“This lorry is too hot to handle” she exclaimed.

So, she hopped into the middle lorry, and sat behind the wheel again:

“This lorry is too passe,” she said

So, she tried the smallest of the lorries:

“Ahhh, this lorry is just right,” she said happily, turned on the engine, and off she went!

“The best seat in the house”

Snowy Seat Sunday

It may be cold outside
With lots of frosted snow
But as the sun comes from its hide
You need to take it slow
Take a seat for a while
Even if it’s not your style
And simply enjoy with a smile…

But, thank goodness: It’s almost summer now!

Ä.I.T.I (Hyvää Äitienpäivää!)

An homage to Mothers everywhere: Happy Mother’s Day!
Omistettu kaikille Äideille, erityisesti Mammalle!

“Äidit ovat vaistomaisia filosofeja” Harriet Beecher Stowe

Äiti

Voimanainen
Erilainen
Ei elämäsi
Helponlainen

Selviytyjä
On yhtä hyvä
Kuin kylvetty
Viisauden jyvä

Nimesi
Mukanani
Kannan ikäni

“My mother had a great deal of trouble with me, but I think she enjoyed it” Mark Twain

Mom

A Superhero
Without a cape
A villain
Without a bait

You may not
Be perfect
Or even a saint
A vision of Madonna
I wouldn’t paint

Often
I neglect
To tell you
Never a zero
Always my hero
My go to

Mom

Love you Mom!

Cats ans Dogs 

Cats and Dogs
Put them in a box
What secrets untold
Before you unfold
When the box is opened
Only keep hoping
There is no other agenda
Are they friends or enemies
Or just plain frenemies
That is the age old dilemma
Of Cats and Dogs

Down by the Pier

At the end of a really long pier
There is a price in the form of a beer

What?

Well, it’s warm and the sun is shining
What could be more defining
Of spring?

The same goes for motorbikes?

Bikes, a sure sign of spring
What of ones with a motor
Do they also make a ding?

Bikes, a sure sign of spring

Ride, ride, ride your bike
Gently down the lane
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Watch out for the spikes!
