Just Clouds


SKY WATCH FRIDAY

JUST CLOUDS

What's to write about? Not a lot
And yet I feel quite proud
To have taken this cloudy picture!
A cloud is a cloud is a cloud!

GO LOGO!

A  problem with my blood-flow sent me to the specialist.
And while waiting to be seen I looked around.
And there, above the receptionist, a logo was displayed,
One of the better logos that I've found!
*
The red blood from the arteries, the blue blood from the veins,
They're both displayed in such a clear-cut manner;
The logo is simplicity itself,  and yet it says
'CARDIO VASCULAR' boldly, on a banner.
*
I often notice logos, some are good and some are bad.
Some are fussy and not pleasing to the eye.
But some are so artistic that they cry out to be seen,
And one stops and looks instead of passing-by.
*
If anybody reads this and they'd like to photograph
Any logo that they see which hits the spot,
Put the URL in your comment  and I will then reprint
And 'versify' the one that hits the spot.
*
I'll publish photograph and verse on my blog and state your name;
No 'Mr Linky' but a little like that scheme.
I'll get to see good logos and you'll get publicity.
Good Heavens! Have I made myself a MEME?

Joy Flight


SCENIC SUNDAY
http://scenicsunday.blogspot.com/

JOY FLIGHT!

We went on a joy-flight one fine day,
My birthday as I recall.
We said we'd fly over Nelson Bay
So we could see it all.
We swooped up into a dazzling blue,
Happy to be on high,
Heading for the Peninsula
To view it from the sky.
A place of scenic beauty,
With hills and woods and bays,
And other charming landmarks,
We were hoping would amaze.
Then we heard the pilot's voice
'When I'm looking up ahead
I see storm clouds over Nelson Bay;
We'll just go home instead.'
So here see the clouds a-rolling in,
Spoil-sports everyone,
Waiting for my birthday
So they could spoil the fun.

Another birthday gone wrong here:
