“Nothing burns like the cold.” George R.R. Martin
Frosted Forest
The snow was slowly floating
The trees with a powdery white cloaking
Like a sugar candy coating
As Mother Nature watched gloating
“Look how pretty I made it!
I don’t care one shit,
If the humans don’t see the fit.
It’s pretty and clean,
Most gorgeous thing they ever seen!
So what if it is freezing cold
And the ever rising wind blows!
Better suck it and enjoy,
For this, is my utter ploy!”
And so the little minions of Earth
Went forth in both fear or mirth
After all, how long could it be before the birth
Of summer

Throwback Thursday 2016-03-24
On Thursdays we walk down memory lane and dig deeply into the archives of Rantings Of A Third Kind. For these posts, I have chosen some of my personal favourites. Some of them may tickle the funny bone, some even provoke thoughts and some of them will give you a view of the world in photographs taken by yours truly.
Shall I Just Twitter Then? (TBT)
Peeping Tammy (Through the Lens) (TBT)
Let the Rantings continue!!!

Peeping Tammy
Camera ready
Hands steady
Acting like the pros
Striking a pose
Click, click, click
Getting the kicks
When images saved
And getting made
Like a Peeping Tom
Creating photo bombs
Spying through the lens
Trying to make a amends
Posting views
Not only for the selected few
But no less
In the world of wireless
Enjoy!

“I worry we are spending too much time on Facebook, that we are losing our ability to connect with people on twitter”
Shall I Just Twitter Then?
“Good morning” I say when I arrive at the office. No response, from anyone.
“Good morning” My voice a little louder, but still no response.
“GOOD MORNING” I am now half shouting. I don’t believe it, no response. Everyone sitting there staring at their screens, small, medium and large.
“Fine” I say to myself, “I shall just twitter ‘Good Morning’ then!”
Suddenly, my screen filled with pings, indicating several responses to my greeting – in Twitter, that is!
Today’s social convention, how could I have forgotten!
