You are so shy. While looking down and around trying to find the right words. I watch you secretly from my lowered face. I’m waiting. Waiting breathlessly to hear you saying …
some day
I will let my heart speak
to yours
and tell about the island of
true everlastings – elixir of dawns
… wishing it to be in this very moment …
Carpe Diem: #1106 Symphony No. 11
The Winter by Joachim Raff.
So what to expect …
more
bounty of universe light
or less
… what to wish …
enlightening
bounty of human meetings
or not
… and …
togetherness
worldwide listening from deepest heart
opened senses
…for 2017.
… sometimes a brain can mislead … towards weapons …
… sometimes a heart is more wise … for humanity …
… sometimes I think I’m right …
… for someone …
while
looking into your eyes
heart’s visible
Daily Prompt: Bounty.
“The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.”
Isaac Asimov
I still have time …
contemplating
when rushing world wants peace
new reborn
… watching the world pass by in front of my eyes …
troubled
when war hijacking and terror
progress
… shooting photos, writing diary and poems, drawing and painting pictures …
philosophizing
while creativity makes result
living life
Carpe Diem: #1105 Christmas Oratorio:
Cantata #1 BWV 248 – Mov. 1/9 by J.S. Bach.
Förra året köpte jag en soppmugg – på julmarknaden – i julklapp till mig. Nu har jag börjat dricka en massa te – grönt Chai-te.
Därför köpte jag …
Lilla flicka
vad ska jag kunna
hitta?Kanske en fin ____
med lite tilltugg?Som jag kan skicka
till dig
Birgitta?
-Blir du glad då?
-Ja-a jätteglad!
… en grön temugg full med hjärtan.
Till mig själv i år.

My hot bath today turned out to be very peaceful and relaxing. Though Mungo Jerry was first out with ”Summertime”. If you listen carefully it’s not only rushy. It’s goes very well for a mermaid to make her moves in a nice flow. I tested and I liked it. And I would love to be that woman ”on your mind”. Dreaming away – to summer times.
Now next up was Leonard Cohen and ”So long Marianne”. Muscles are now warm and soft so the mermaid opened up to the music. I thought about the ”So long” both to LC and his Marianne this year.
music ‘n muscles
mermaid ready to move away
all pain
Well he didn’t want to leave until he had that ”Last Dance” – which I had saved for him. I was happy and I shook loose my shoulders. One more dance. And he left – it couldn’t be more calm – like as everything around was totally weightless. Me too.
Daily Prompt: Calm.
Livet bjuder inte bara på en väg – knagglig eller slät – den bjuder på en mångfald. Vissa tvingas du ta andra väljer du själv.
Om jag fick
en chans till
skulle jag inte ta den!Det är dags
för en annan att fortsätta
den kampen!Just nu
ger jag mig själv de chanser
jag vill ha.
I en första period får man mycket hjälp i vägvalen. I en annan period är det för många krafter som bestämmer. Till slut lämnas alla val till dig själv.
Då ska du ta chansen!
Och gilla läget 🙂
Skrivpuff: Chans.
“You cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore.”
William Faulkner
I want to …
hug you
kiss you
sit down and have a chat
giggle when you kiss me
look into your eyes
show the joy in my heart
take a sip from the glass with red wine
chat and giggle
touch you secretly under the table
kiss your hand
thinking about next step
smiling alluringly
twinkling mischievously
… when I meet you!
When will you come?
These days in our world it is like – …
… while the days role on and – somewhere there you are – with your enthusiasm for life – you enjoy – you experience – ….
… then suddenly – like a flash from the sky – actually the reality – somewhere – you are hit – very hard – and paralyzing – by a kind of lid – for a while – …
… then you rise and – go on with your life – finding the way back to your enthusiasm – your joy for life – experiencing – …
… with a new needle – like a knit gnawing – somewhere reminding – or telling you – something …
… you don’t want to listen to!
So I don’t!
a solitary leaf
and the blue river of life
flooding
I go on – in my life – I take the hits from all the lids – and I go on with my life.
Daily Prompt: Enthusiasm.
… thinking about these horrible ‘t’ attacks …
No snow here – yet. And I am glad for that. I have already had all snow I need in this life. Now I only want sunshine and a blue sky. Not for sunbathing! Just for feeling-so-good. And that awesome feeling with less clothes – I hate winter clothes and I hate putting on and putting on to keep warm! Now I am heading for spring in my mind so I have already bought tickets for Dance festival in February and Spring festival in April.
Anybody wants to join?
spread out
like snow in sunshine
butterfly wings
And that Christmas! I’m not in stress – lucky me – the only stress I feel is that I couldn’t find Jane Reichhold’s translation of Matsuo Basho. They didn’t even know about the book!!!! Have to wait until I am back home – in Scandinavia. No Christmas present to me then. Have to do with goat cheese, kolbasz, seed crackers and red wine …. and of course Carpe Diem. Maybe Carol Oates too 😉
Carpe Diem: Seven Days Before Christmas 2016 #4 first snow.
Trying to catch that special mood …
in the moonlight
with cane and faltering steps
cherry blossoms
… for writing poetry …
wondering
around in my own steps
or somebody else’s
… while listening to music …
sårade hjärtan
och flydda själar
byter plats
hurt hearts
and away fled souls
change places
… lots of lost hearts and lost souls in our world … to many indeed …
… with a war going on … mothers, fathers and children are losing their homes and many – far too many – their lives …
neither hurt hearts
should walk soldiers shoes
nor away fled souls
or soldiers
some tomorrow
Now I just have to choose one of the most beautiful songs about – NOT WAR.
Lars Winnerbäck sang when Dalai Lama visited Sweden 2011 and His Holiness personally thanked LW.
I will work more with the translation in English because it’s much more poetic in Swedish. But hopefully it gives an idea about the content.
| Ingen Soldat av Lars Winnerbäck 2009 Lyrics; Himlen faller ner, Jag är ingen soldat, Jag har härjat krig i huset, Jag har aldrig stått vid fronten jag är ingen soldat, I rispan från min vrede, Jag är ingen soldat, jag är ingen soldat, |
Ingen Soldat av Lars Winnerbäck 2009 Lyrics; The sky is falling down, I’m not a soldier, I have ravaged war in the house, I have never been at the front I’m not a soldier, In the scratch of my wrath, I’m not a soldier, I’m not a soldier, |
Skrivpuff: Ärligt talat.
Skyller på julen att det blir lite märkliga inlägg – ärligt talat 😉
