Stranded
but in a pleasant way
cabin on the beach
warm plaids, cool wines.

White beauty
Speaking to colleagues today
from Lisbon to Johannesburg
all were envious of my winter wonderland backdrop
while I’m planning a short break
to a warmer place

At our bus stop
When I looked out this morning
I saw the most amazing hard light
coming from the right.
The light had been grey through the clouds for weeks.
But as I returned inside, I spotted this young lady waiting for the bus.
Amazing contrast ofthe white house to her skin tone and matching dark clothes
made for such a radiant smile showing her teeth when I asked her if she was ok If I’d step a bit closer to make a quick portait.
“Sure! I’m waiting for the bus anyway”.
Ariane contacted me meanwhile to get her picture in full res / without watermarks.

Right on our corner
is a diner that offers great food
with an endless supply of clientele
on display in its big windows for me.
Now only if I could work out my angle,
I would prevent including
myself.

A man’s home
is his … Buick,
beautifully showing the patina of time,
demanding my attention with a deep, slow growl of its idling v8.
234 horses and one Boxer ready for action,
for the easily recognised and very friendly owner.
Maastricht, dec 2022.
Apologies, forgot to ask your name, ping me a mail
if you’d like the full res pix and unredacted license plates. -
When Christmas
has come and gone
and the fridge is gradually
losing its bloated belly of rich
stock, we venture out for
replenishment.

A cruel mistress
On the last day before Christmas
you’d expect busy streets
filled with people franticly looking
for last minute buys.Faith is a cruel mistress
as economy downfall
seemed to have deprived most,
of their shopping spreesWell I was there alright,
with my amazing planning skills,
franticly looking in the old centre
of Maastricht for a treasured gift.Riviera Maison is my trusted goto place
classy & sassy I found just the item
at half its normal price, and packaged so well,
it would’ve embarrassed mr Bean.

Érase una vez
Érase una vez
había un castillo
muy pequeñito
con un foso tan grande
que parecía podría caber dentro
de la fuente
de mi jardín -
Young brawler
Saved from the shelter, at the age of two
In fairness, Ivar choose me, wrapped me around his paw
Young at heart and all of nine lives ahead of him.
