Carpe Diem

Change Christmas for peace

Carpe Diem Special #186
Georgia’s 2nd ”days of Christmas”(choka).

dark nights and dusk days
stars are bright and sky so black
cold feet are stumping
while the children are wishing
carol songs in air
and Christmas coming closer
handicrafts and food
crowded over filled markets

I’m standing beside
I’m thinking about the world
I’m in the middle

dark and brutal days
scaring black nights of horror
no stars can be seen
heavy feet running away
wishing for safe life
no holiday in sight yet
will there ever be peace

I’m feeling so sad
I’m both inside and outside
Want to change Christmas for peace

I took the flight. Like I so often do. To my favorite city in Europe. Budapest in Hungary. The center of all kind of arts. The city of many festivals. Now it is Christmas market. Everybody is out and I love mingling around with my Canon. All kinds of handicraft. All kinds of Hungarian food – made out in the air. Chimney cakes baked for never ending queues. All kinds of languages spoken. Some people or many actually like the mulled wine but I don’t. But I wouldn’t say no to an Unicum.
