Life is a Pilgrimage

I have had some wonderful days now with my elder sister. I am so fortunate! Just saying! My sisters are just so wonderful. Every moment I spend with either of them or both is moments to keep in my heart. Has always been. No pilgrimage can compares to the time with sisters. My sisters.

best pilgrimage
all these journeys – dearest
my heart sings

A life Pilgrimage – mine with my sisters …

we share
the same start – oh life
fragile and strong

A life Pilgrimage – alone or together …

always another
page of day to fill – tastes
so exciting

… and tomorrow will bring some more … I am ready!

Me and my sisters - I am the middle one.
I am the middle one 😉
A long time ago.

Carpe Diem Namasté the Spiritual Way #2 pilgrimage.

Like a Pearl

passing over water
the island like a pearl
to appreciate

I just did it! Passed over water. In glory ”fairyland”. Under the moon. Almost full. Waiting for your arrival. I walked over the water beside my sister and brother in law. This bewildered beautiful night. Over the water. Passing a pearl – the island. Just saying!

Budapest by Night.

Ah – Matsushima

Matsushima ah!

Matsushima, ah! © Matsuo Basho

ah – Matsushima
our bay for love – feeding
each other with oysters

This bay I am definitely sure I would like! And ”Pine Islands” sounds so romantic. A wonderful bay, nice weather and oysters … wow …
I will take off at once … Sailing in sunlight

Silence is Safe

 

oh this silence …
boulders filled
by cikadans squeaks   ©Basho

a squirrel sneaks away
up into and around the trunk

it’s getting darker
volume turned up
like million violins

pulling the covers upp
to soften sound for ears

after a sigh
acorn fell on forehead
that squirrel

another acorn fell
somebody is still working

in the sky
a star fell too
my wish

the silence is safe
a dream came true

I don’t know if I have succeeded in my first ‘Soliloquy No Renga’ (a Renga written by one poet) – this monologue with ‘hokku’ and ‘ageku’.
Is it a 8-stanza renga?
