Glowing Bright…Mundane Monday

Mundane Monday challenge is created to find beauty in almost everything.

The challenge is simple : find beauty in everyday mundane things, capture the beauty and upload the photographs.

Two glowing bulbs

light up the night sky

one is the full moon

and one is the bulb

a riddle I guess you can solve

Last night I tried to capture the full moon, but alas this is a poor replica of the golden orb that I saw. The moon is such a regular feature in our lives…what if the old man on the Moon decides to take it away for a while? What then?

Below, is my first just published Poetry Book “Out of the silent breath” which is available on Amazon and Smashwords.

When you buy my book, you support me in an invaluable manner.

Out of the silent breath

Delicious memories are here with me,

of lying in your arms and listening to your heartbeats

they rhymed with the drip drops on the rooftops.

of cuddling under the covers, as the windows misted over,

whispering sweet nonsense and laughing softly,

to our little intimate jokes.

Passage To Where?…Mundane Monday

We came across this passage during our weekend meandering and I would have loved a little more wandering, but my dear Himself reminds me that I am not Hercules Poirot nor Christopher Columbus and I partially satisfied my curiousity by taking a photo from the entrance.

I still can’t help wondering what’s behind those walls. I think my interest is stoked by the lamps that light up the passage since it was getting dark 😉

Do you ever get seized with curiousity that you need all your common sense to squelch?

Out of the silent breath

Enchant me with your expressive eyes, that crinkles in laughter as you speak

that I may find myself ever caught between

the reflections of your pupils and there shall I remain.

Upside Down…Mundane Monday

Saw this idle signpost along a path and I couldn’t help wondering what was on the mind of the carpenter when he nailed it together.

The other side was equally upside down. Maybe too much to drink or lack of sleep at the point of construction 🙂

Out of the silent breath

Dance to your heart’s delight my African child, until echoes of your stamping feet, beating heart; bright eyes, smiling lips; and waving hands, resonates over and over like thunder claps, reverberating throughout the Universe.

It’s just a dinghy wooden trash collector. We have trash cans all over the place here and often take it for granted that they should be there.

Imagine if they were not implanted? Think of the fact that there are cities where heaps of garbage decorates its perimeters.

Found on an offbeat track, it was sheer will that made me resist untieing the bag to see what was inside, but I couldn’t resist stepping on it with my trainers on my feet to get a feel. Was soft and squishy, heightened my sense of curiousity.

I guess you figure why the ordinary pipes caught my eyes.

I listened to see if I could hear the drone of Ben Huberman, Michelle or the Happiness Engineers, but they kept things rather quiet. My guess is that they are working on the ping-backs 😉
