Typo in the title?
Nah. It's just that I would not let a tiny T spoil an avantgardistic alliteration.

Friday is Skyday

What tiny an observatory
to watch those clouds
not to speak of the universe

Summer in Seanhenge II

Due to my laziness I don't do it often, but just for a change I felt fancy
to offer more than but one photo from Summer in Seanhenge.

Balcony view.

Fern, polygonatum, poppy.

It looks chaotic but after may turnips
we shall enjoy to harvest
tomatoes, potatoes, carrots, peppers,
cauliflower, onions,cucumbers, courgettes,
beans, different salads etc., plus lots of herbs.

Always a fine view when looking up,
whilst reading, writing or just enjoying a mug of coffee.

My rowan, a birthday present many moons ago.

Roses and elder.

Sometimes it's nice to enjoy shadow.

Poppies.

Merrygold, horseradish and phacelia.

Ah yes, that looks pretty chaotic. But I still smile when thinking of the words that have been hanging in front of me for many years: "Chaos on your desk? Then you're a happy man."

Summer in Seanhenge

Flowery idyll.

Friday is Skyday

On a hot Friday afternoon
with a cup of coffee and a good book
sitting in the shade of apple and plum tree
I felt I am privileged.

Relats conjunts

 

The luminaries of antiquity all together, from A for Aristotle to Z for Zarathustra. And what did they achieve?
In 2024, today's "luminaries" are able to destroy each other with the most modern weapons.
And this is then proudly called progress.

Bloomsday Dialogue

Boccaccio: "Poldy, my friend,
you don't have a birthday in Wikipedia,
just the year of birth. How cometh?"

Bloom: "Boccia, my friend,: Happy Birthday!
How cometh you've been dead for 649 years?"

Boccaccio: "Aren't we all mortal?"

Bloom (smiling softly): "Not all of us".

Boccaccio: ?

Bloom: "Because June 16th, 1904, I became immortal."

Roof drama in Seanhenge.

 

After her tinopeners new roof  had been finished today,
Poesy obviously wanted to inspect
the whole thing from across the road
and suddenly found herself sitting on our roof.

Oh horror! And now how to get down again?

So daughter climbed into the attic, opened the hatch,
hung out a blanket ...

... and tongue snapping lured the cat to safety .
Phew! What excitement ;-)
