Chimney Sweep's Omen

Coming straight from a Children's Tale

The Chimney Sweep is on my Way

We even take the same Bus

But He gets off before the "Lux"

And waits for another Bus to come

While I'm heading to the Panthéon.

Notes:

I like symbols, but I dislike superstitions.

Good luck is a state of mind: everything good or bad is inside us and it is up to us to choose which side (i. e., feelings, emotions and thoughts) we want to be on.

The Art of Happiness is a lifelong learning journey, especially when you have to appease your own Black Dog and you need to be stubbornly faithful to yourself and what is really meaningful and worth your quiet but fierce determination.

Children's Tale: Mary Poppins, of course.

"Lux": the Luxembourg Garden in Paris. Its nickname is "Luco", but I wanted to make an imperfect rhyme with "Bus".

Panthéon: the place where the French politics and other autorities would love to be, but the more they try to hide their magouilles and the less they deserve to be buried here.

Poem and notes above and photo below by me - all without Artificial Idiocy, of course.
