Sneak Peek!


THAT'S MY WORLD
http://showyourworld.blogspot.com/

SNEAK PEEK

I didn't know him at all! I had my eye on the view!
A quick shot through the window and he got into it too!
I don't go round admiring young men! That would never be my style!
This shot of a rather gorgeous hunk was taken without guile!
Keep your eyes on My World, the buildings and the sky.
Ladies! I am really shocked if the gentleman takes your eye!
I wonder if he's a Blogger! A Photographer or Poet!
I wonder if he'll get hopping mad and quickly let me know it!
I wonder if he'll get a call from a friend saying 'Hi there, Jack!
Did you see an old girl eyeing you when you were having a snack?'
But enough of him! He's peripheral! Just an image, nothing more.
I'm concerned with the Sydney scene....... sometimes old age is a bore!

COPYRIGHT MONSIEUR?

Claude Monet, eat your heart out! I've found lilies of my own!
Alright! I know this snapshot is nothing like a clone!
It lacks a certain something; I think it's called a soul!
But I didn't have to dab and brush and go through that rigmarole!
I simply clicked a button, and there was my work of art!
And if you squint your eyes a bit you can't tell us apart!
Also I offer a bonus! A reflection of a tree!
We're certainly artistic! Claude Monet and me!

Garden Gossip

THAT'S MY WORLD
gleans information and photographs from every corner of the globe.


Here you see a typical Australian country house. It is not in the country now, as the town has grown up around it, but it still exudes a wonderful rural air. The same lady had lived there for fifty years and gardening is her passion.


GARDEN GOSSIP

I pass this garden in the car almost every day
And every time I wish that I could while the time away.
The lawn is quite immaculate with never a weed in sight;
The shrubs are varied in colour and graded as to height.
Seasonal flowers grow freely, whatever the time of year,
But they always blend with the bushes that 'chance' to be standing near.
I show you just a fraction; the rest is like a park;
In every little corner, the gardener's made her mark.
I took friend Joan to see her; she has green fingers too
And she wished to ask some questions. Well, gardeners often do.
I thought this scene of ladies sharing their gardening lore
Was absolutely charming, so, camera to the fore,
I snapped this little moment, this sweet idyllic scene,
Wishing very heartily that my poor thumbs were GREEN!
