Daily Prompt

Maybe not

Carpe Diem #615, Exodus.
Daily Prompt: Under the snow.
You were caught in an avalanche. To be rescued, you need to make it through the night. What thought(s) would give you the strength to go through such a scary, dangerous situation?

Is this real or not! I am captured under the snow. At least I can breathe though it is unbearably cold. Drowned in the snow I start thinking about my life and it’s possible kind of ending. I’m not at all afraid to die. I am ready when it’s time. If the time is now – then it is.
I have had a fairly good life but lately affected by huge disappointments caused by a former near one. That happened on what I call the Terrible Tuesday – 26th Febr 2014.  I would rather not had that experience. It made a big black hole – a thorn in my life.

So I will rather give my thoughts to my son, my two daughters and to my four grandchildren. I am so proud of you. I was so happy for your letters M and B.  For skyping and talking with you M+W+B+M. I love you all .

And then I will just float away in my own world like I am able to do in special difficult situations. This ability I love and appreciate to have. It feels like nothing in the world can reach me and hurt me.

So maybe we see each other again – maybe not – that’s life.

Sadly floating by
all memories from the past
like melt frozen snow.

Leftover necklace

Daly Prompt: Leftovers SandwichToday, publish a post based on unused material from a previous piece –a paragraph you nixed, a link you didn’t include, a photo you decided not to use. Let your leftovers shine!

Shooting macro with my little Canon G12 didn’t turn out as well as I wanted. Missed my Canon EOS 6D and Sigma macro lens.

While shooting macro
necklace appears closer
in my Canon lens.

But here it is – my leftover – macro …

You know

Daily Prompt: Never too late.
Is there a person you should’ve thanked, but never had the chance? Is there someone who helped you along the way without even realizing it? Here’s your chance to express your belated gratitude.

No I don’t think so.
I was so tremendously thankful that I told them. Because I wanted them to know they’d been so very important to me.

And I am glad I did.

I love you so much
appreciated from heart
brightest memory.

You know I mean you two!

Quickly forget

Daily Prompt: Shaken and Stirred.
What’s the most elaborate, complicated meal you’ve ever cooked? Was it a triumph for the ages, or a colossal fiasco? Give us the behind-the-scenes story (pictures are welcome, of course).

This was the hardest question to answer … since I don’t know when!

When making a meal
it turns to a disaster
Just quickly forget!

Be a role model like

Daily Prompt: Calling Uncle Bob.
Have you ever faced a difficult situation when you had to choose between sorting it out yourself, or asking someone else for an easy fix? What did you choose — and would you make the same choice today?

Yes and no!
Yes and no!
Yes and no!

It is always
best to
rely on
and trust
yourself
since
you are
always there.

To be competent
Abel
in favor of
the good life
for yourself
and
for others.

A good example is Ayaan Hirsi Ali – The AHA Foundation to support her! Our world needs more people of her kind – she is a role model. ♥

Why worry

Daily Prompt: Envelope Pushers.
When was the last time you took a risk (big or small), and pushed your own boundaries — socially, professionally, or otherwise? Were you satisfied with the outcome?

I do I do I do
all the time
except
when it’s about
Money
money.

And I like it
testing
bounderies
is a way of
living.

To soon
you are
Out of time
Why worry
don’t Sacrifice.

It’s not worth it
open your window
force
your fences
Enjoy!

That’s all right …..

I am spinning letters

Daily Prompt: Spinning Yarns,
What makes a good storyteller, in your opinion? Are your favorite storytellers people you know or writers you admire?

Cinquian

Storyteller
Bewildering fanciful
Captures upsets touches
Serve living through books
Storyqueenery

A like innovatory ways of writing and building the story. So it’s all about structure and language together with the content – the story itself. I have found a cyberfriend that fullfills this and I also have my favorite authors.

To write is to live – you do it for love, I think.

♥ I’m spinning letters – and I like it. ♥

When I need you

Daily Prompt: Grateful and guilty.
Whether it’s a trashy TV show, extra-pulpy fiction, or nutrient-free candy, write a thank-you note to your guiltiest guilty pleasure.

To my Dear,
You are always nice to my back. You always let me fly away when writing and drawing. When working with my pictures.

Dear Armchair – with you – I always find the flow. We spend a lot of time together. Some say too much. But I can live all my life in your arms.

When I need you – you are always there.
Thanks from my heart!

Crescendo in every corpuscle

Daily Prompt: Cue the Violins.
If your life were a movie, what would its soundtrack be like? What songs, instrumental pieces, and other sound effects would be featured on the official soundtrack album?

  • The happily playing key notes floating down the mountains – like innocent children playing on a summer meadow – set the mood and start the film rolling.
  • The tune shades and exceed. Takes command. Grabs every soul. It is just irresistibly. Time stops and existence is filled with romantic warm purple rain in a kind of princy way.
  • Crescendo ends in exhaustion and well being. Meeting the soft saxophone music. Played by the heart. Filling every corpuscle while providing everlasting love.

Väl-ostad dag

Daily Prompt: Sparkling or still.
What’s your idea of a perfect day off: one during which you can quietly relax, doing nothing, or one with one fun activity lined up after the other? Tell us how you’d spend your time.
Carpe Diem #609.
Skrivpuff: Fundera.

My 1st try to write a Haibun.

Vaknar efter skön sömn. Kaffet högt efterlängtat. Svart och väldoftande. Panik. Bara två paket kvar i kylskåpet. Måste fyllas på. Från Sverige. Från Skåne. Zoégas så klart. Mackorna är välostade med tomat över. Morgonen är uppstånden.

Dagen har börjat
Den ska fyllas och njutas
Kreativitet.

Läser och svarar. Skriver och kommenterar. Studerar och lär. Funderar och analyserar. Bokar i almanackan. Haikulund på Christinehof. Poeter i Malmö. Lyssnar på riksdagsdebatt om våldet i Mellanöstern. Han pratar bra. Tweetar till honom. Det han säger behöver sägas. Hungrig. Magen skriker. Glömmer tider och kropp. Skriver och läser. Målar ”Jag är crazy”. Ritar ”Jag är crazy 2”. Nöjd och glad. Bloggar och publicerar.

Dagen flyter på
Skapandet ger resultat
Här är det flow nu.

Walking a long way
to my refrigerator
feeling the cold chill.

Writing in English. Poetry and prose. A real challenge. I lack so many words and expressions. Well. I also do in Swedish. But then I compose new words. It’s something I like a lot. Today I composed a new word ”väl-ostad” which means it’s well served with cheese – ”well-cheesed” so to say. Do you like thinking about a ”well-cheesed sandwich”? I do for sure. Especially if it is goat cheese. Not chèvre! Just hard strong well tasty goat cheese. It is OK with blue mold goat cheese – very much OK I must say. It will be just perfect with some lemon filled olives and of course red wine. Preferable Hungarian. May I suggest Cabernet Franc? From Szekszárd. Beside a bottle of sparkling St István water. A perfect ending of a dazzling day.

Raising my glass high
still some wine left to enjoy
sorry goat cheese gone.

I appreciate every comment about my Haibun because I want so much to improve.
