“Why is Monday so far from Friday, and Friday so near to Monday?”

Monday, Bloody Monday

Monday, bloody Monday
It is certainly not my fun day
Still five days until Friday
This could well be my die day

My calendar filled with meetings
No time for eating
Feeling like cheating
When trying to catch a break for peeing

No use in struggle or fighting 
Almost worse than being struck by a lightning
Dealing with the disappointment
Because there is no ointment

Another working week has started
From my leisure time I was parted
Doing my best to survive
Just wishing to keep in the drive

Tell me, do I really hate Mondays
Or is it just the illusion of a fading Sunday?

World Wide Wednesday Presents Delphi

Enjoying the view
Reserved for a few
Looking at the sky
Closing my eyes
Stepping back in time
In the beautiful Delphi

World Wide Wednesday Presents: Delphi

History written in stone
Time to get my mind blown
Hiking up the many stairs
Counting my steps in pairs

The many ancient ruins
On top of the mountain
The reward of the effort
Which made me sweat a lot

Charioteer of Delphi, Delphi, Greece

Delphi

The boy with a chariot
With a look so serious
Horses as beasts of burden
He may be a rich man’s servant
But driving with fervency
Loving his chariot passionately

What rhymes with orange?
A sunset, of a different kind
Only this short homage
Was for it today assigned

FIVE:

Perky little red thing
Makes you want to sing
It thought it was the king
But found out with a sting
It was just a fling

FOUR:

On the bare black branches
Which leaves have now neglected
The last evening light reflected
As the sun slowly dances
Into the night’s darkness

Pretty red flower
Over the others will tower
Raising its head proudly
Shouting out loudly
“Look at me, me, me, me!”

TWO:

Red, green and blue combined
Autumn’s true colours refined
Vibrating in the afternoon sun
Before the winter winds
Will leave them undone
