In the Stream – A Dedication

Sometimes I look up the words. To see what different meanings it can have. When I read about ”specific” …. well …

particular, specified, fixed, set, determined, distinct, definite, single, individual, ….

determined, specific, definite, particular, fixed, given

Individual, private, unadopted, separate, specific, personal

… it could be me ….
… some of the characters just on the point … ha ha …
… some lacking too …

Then I saw what Eddaz had written .. specifics about the man with M (= the man with a uppercase M = a very special one, it’s an expression in Sweden)… to spend the life together with …

Then I turned the perspective – in my mind – and thought …

-What would and should a man appreciate about me – the man with uppercase M!?

Like the pope said when he visited Sweden last summer – he had heard about the strong Swedish women and that Swedish men – therefor – look for women abroad … ha ha … they have problem with the strong ones …

So it has to be a man who is …  really … interesting, broadminded, humble and strong, caring and loving, creative ….. like me … ha ha …

I thought I hade such a man … but after 45 years it turned out … thinking about the pope now … I was mistaken …

As I said before – I love interesting people! Creative people!

in the stream
like two flakes of ice
crossing
over each other and for a moment
melting together

A dedication to extra ordinary men – those I have met and these I will meet …

The Danube in ice - Budapest

 

Feelers needed – for two

I also believe in miracles! Miracles in the tiniest. Miracles in the mighty great universe. Miracles in minds.

feelers needed
walking in life of miracles
for two
with a watcher in the middle
enjoying the path way

It’s not enough to look closer! You have to look even closer! If you don’t want to miss the tiniest. Watch out …. Click on the pictures!

MACRO - Pentatomidae Bärfis

Did you see him in the above photo?
This is the miracle about macro shooting. Always surprises back home looking at the day’s result.
I find the ones I first didn’t see … miracle every time … and so fascinating ❤

MACRO - Pentatomidae Bärfis
Nobody else but me saw this exciting happenings in Budapest city center by the Danube  close to Chain Bridge. I showed a girl but I think she got scared by the bugs.
People were occupied  with selfies – with Buda Castle or the bridge in the background.

I have a dream

Today I am tempted to write about something … kind of  … ”I have a dream”. A secret dream. Unreachable I’m afraid.

in room of sun rays
filled with easels and unlimited colors
I paint
my surreal world on canvas
and then kiss you welcome

So if I won a lot of money … if … if … if …

I would buy an apartment with a sea view. Not ground floor! It has to be with a great view and a large terrace. Blue sky most days and a weather that allows less clothes.

Watching the sunset we will drink wine and enjoy.
Every day …

I was told
by a picture to be
-grab the brush!
appetite for macro ‘n micro world
with mind conquered

I will paint, write and read …. and wait for you …

… every night …

Daily Prompt: Tempted.

När jag ska upp

I morgon måste jag vakna …

ett penseldrag
och det öppna fönstret stängs
plötsligt

… ja alltså tidigt! Tidigare än vanligt. Senare än alla andra. Ska ju på möte.

husmöte
om ytterligare en våning
och ny hiss
precis som en gång tidigare
då inte alla ville

Undrar hur det går? Hoppas någon översätter. Vill ju inte rösta fel. Men jag gillar faktiskt den gamla hissen … när jag ska upp ….

Tänk om det blir takterass … också!

En fjäder föll

Ett Vingslag

Varför befinner man (läs jag) sig så ofta vid livspunkter för beslut. Idag när jag kom hem från rundan kunde jag inte bestämma om jag skulle bada eller vänta tills i morgon.

-Hinner jag rulla håret och få det torrt i morgon? var frågan.

-Birgitta! så knäppt du nu tänker. Har du inte fattat att tiden är nu när du gör precis som du vill!
-Vad vill du egentligen?
-Där ser du så lätt det är!

ett vingslag
och framtiden närmar sig
en liten bit
när en fjäder sakta faller
sorgset utan framtid

-Det är mycket svårare när det handlar om bloggen. När den där märkliga drivkraften börjar verka. Den som vill göra om. Förändra. Testa. Den är svårare att styra – för att inte säga omöjlig – än mig själv …

Köpte en massa nya penslar idag. Testade och gjorde flera versioner av ‘Nature-in-Love’.

ett fågelstreck
tvärs över regnbågen
fylls igen

Till slut vill jag bara säga att …

en lya
i kulturens hjärta mer värt
än bil

… och kostar mycket mindre i längden … I know.

Ps. Känner just nu för att skriva haibun – lite fritt skrivande om tankar med haiku eller som här både en tanka och en haiku insprängt. 

Skrivpuff: Bit -> Bil.

New Nutrition

I am sure the Pilgrimage road is very interesting to experience. A lot of people do. I know several who made the walk. For me – I and my soul – my inner me – just need a spot with a view. A special view. Could be among rocks and cliffs by the sea or a peak in the highlands.
When I was young I could have said in a real forest too. Like the one I had around me. At that time I loved the forest but now it’s like a closed area – to me. I do need expanses.

steps and tracks ahead breathe new
nutrition
while the lake welcomes raindrops
the river gushes freshly

Yes I am fascinated by the elephants – their long walks – their memories – their expressions – … maybe they do Pilgrimage too … that’s what I think …
But what if ….!? …. they are prevented … or we … from inner journeys …
