The Glass House, Budapest

Viktoria Halleluja

In Budapest there are always a lot of culture events and performances going on. Both with famous artists and artists to be. In city center there is ”The Glass House” where not so famous artists take the scene and perform. I  often go there. Some days ago it was time for children and I recorded. Viktoria sang Halleluja so beautifully – I think.

MayDay

Sometimes you feel a lot when listening to music. Like it grabs you and that’s awesome. Sometimes it doesn’t say anything particular. Or maybe you are in a kind of mood not right for that music. I think the later works for me just now. I just don’t get inspired of Emelie Mayer’s Symphony. My wings are as broken and I cannot fly high enough to create a beautiful poem.

Crazy Day with Glitter Goat Cheese Salmon and Seeds and no Basho

Habanera for Pinch & Bath

Today I had a lot of errands to do. Most important was goat cheese. On the way to the cheese market I slipped into some shops and found – not a dress – but a jumper full of glittering paljettes. This will do very well, I thought, since dresses are so hard to find. After the goat cheese I found some fresh salmon. Also perfect – Omega 3 you know! I like salmon a lot but don’t forget it in the oven!!!! The oven baked is the best I think. Then a refill for my seed supply – sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds.
-Well done Birgitta. Now you earn a (Christmas) Present. Off I went to the bookstore.

And what to say!!!! They didn’t know about haiku! They didn’t know about Matsuo Basho!!!! In the largest bookstore in Budapest. No present to me this day. Life sucks!! But not for long. Last one – a favorite – take away – crème brulée – to keep me going tonight.

Home sweet home and time for a well deserved hot bath and relax. Listening to my music.
Sorry I don’t know which was the first but when I was all covered with the hottest water and feeling the heavenly relaxation Chris Norman sang ”Lay back in the arms of someone” and I did. Feeling wonderful. Swaying my body. Good for the muscles.
Now I’m ready! And ….

Wow – Habanera – and of course I think about Maya seducing the soldier ha ha. Some special muscles will have to work now.

Oh I love love love! This scene. Maya is so ”just one” with the music. Love love love! Now I am exhausted – no just kidding – ….
Funny though with Zorba’s dance again today when I finally got up.

Daily Prompt: Relax.

The Butterfly by Matsuo Basho

Seducing Wine

Jag började söka på Internet. Ville få information om en av de största inom haiku. Vill andas in hans själ. Genom poesin. Vill ju bli bättre på denna speciella japanska versformen. Jag tror jag gör ett besök i bokhandeln i morgon. Efter att jag handlat getost – som snabbt tar slut – där borta i bästa saluhallen. Hembakade frökex och god getost – ah – det är bara så – himmelskt gott! Tar med Carol Oates bok i väskan också eftersom jag ska till bokhandeln. Där på andra våningen finns världens vackraste bokcafé. Kanske kommer jag en bit till i boken som aldrig tycks komma förbi ”inledningen”. Håller fortfarande på att läsa om den mördade dottern/systern ur alla inblandade personernas perspektiv. Har buret med denna boken sedan i somras. Får köpa en stor bit av getosten och en bit av den goda färska. Så jag har till rödbetor. Det ska räcka över hela julen. Ungersk kolbasz har jag redan. Det fick jag en i julklapp. Det kräver … Ett gott rödvin. Tungt som synden. Fylligt som en rundmagad herre i övre medelåldern. Och utsökt som ….. som …. som …. som … mmmm … en kärleksförklaring i nattens yra. Ja det rödvinet ska jag njuta och sannerligen inte spara en droppe till nästa dag. Tror jag köper två flaskor. Eller tre.

Hoppas de har en bok med poem av Matsu Basho. Då ska jag få den i julklapp.

Skrivpuff: Söka.
