Father (& son)

A trio from my dad.

STANLEY THE SPERM

Experimenting with something new for me – adult humour :). Read on, and do let me know if it does tickle your funny bone!

Stanley was warmly content within testicular walls
At ease and hanging loose in his master’s balls

The Deliciousness of Words – 1

Preamble: I’ve been wanting to do this for a while now – Having come across a collection of some of the most evocative words in languages other than English that have no direct equivalents – and each of which having struck a chord in me – I’m going to post them a couple at a time, with explanations (not mine) and complementary visuals, for you to savour. And a request to all readers  – can we make this interactive, where you can also contribute some more in languages you speak / know, which I will compile?

Here goes… when Koi No Yokan leads to Mamihlapinatapei leads to Forelsket

Hara Kiri, A Step At A Time

I started with a clean sheet, with her name calligraphed across my heart
The Geisha moulded me like Origami pieces
Folding me over, cropping and creasing

HERE & NOW

Deja Vous

Hi! Haven’t we met before?

Love, in any language

NEW YORK

My ode, my paean to a supposedly heartless city which has captured mine from Day 1…

Mythical, legendary, Hollywoodian, all too real
A microcosm of America, the world, life itself, with all its disparities

A city on steroids which ensnares you, eats you alive & spits you out
A Mecca with a brazen, in-your-face attitude

Born on a Monday

Monday’s child
A name meaning Happiness
