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!

HAIKU – Senryu 5+7+5.

Carpe DiemWhere does Rengetsu’s “cold within the sound” lead you?

The ice blanket hugs
my body turns inside out
heart beats so slowly.

Am I dead or what?
Did my heart stop beating now?
I dream for answers.

….. I am still dreaming for answers ….

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. ♥

Sista dagen närmar sig. Jag måste inhandla mönstrade
häftiga strumpor. Tror det bara är ett måste. Eller kanske två. OK.

Sover gott länge
vaknar glad som en lärka
tro det den som vill!

Sover inte gott
vaknar till ute är vått
Nej fy så dåligt!

HAIKU är 3 rader med 5+7+5 stavelser … samt kul att skriva.

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. ♥

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.
