Carpe Diem

Like a Pearl

passing over water
the island like a pearl
to appreciate

I just did it! Passed over water. In glory ”fairyland”. Under the moon. Almost full. Waiting for your arrival. I walked over the water beside my sister and brother in law. This bewildered beautiful night. Over the water. Passing a pearl – the island. Just saying!

Budapest by Night.

Ah – Matsushima

Matsushima ah!
A-ah, Matsushima, ah!
Matsushima, ah! © Matsuo Basho


ah – Matsushima
our bay for love – feeding
each other with oysters

This bay I am definitely sure I would like! And ”Pine Islands” sounds so romantic. A wonderful bay, nice weather and oysters … wow …
I will take off at once … Sailing in sunlight

Silence is Safe

 

oh this silence …
boulders filled
by cikadans squeaks   ©Basho


a squirrel sneaks away
up into and around the trunk

it’s getting darker
volume turned up
like million violins

pulling the covers upp
to soften sound for ears

after a sigh
acorn fell on forehead
that squirrel

another acorn fell
somebody is still working

in the sky
a star fell too
my wish

the silence is safe
a dream came true


I don’t know if I have succeeded in my first ‘Soliloquy No Renga’ (a Renga written by one poet) – this monologue with ‘hokku’ and ‘ageku’.
Is it a 8-stanza renga?

A Good-Hearted Philosophy

I say: Beware!

B E W A R E

About all kinds of some people’s doctrines! Religions.

You know there has been so any Gods along times. Gods made up by people. People in need to get themselves some explanations about world and life. Week people. Yes week because they didn’t had the ability to think on a higher level. And then they experienced they could get hold of the mass – just by that made up religion!

B E W A R E!

I myself find Richard Dawkins very interesting. Reason rules for him … and science. So it is for me. Take care of your open mind – reflect – be humble – and aware – beware – … don’t be ”taken over”!

“We are all atheists about most of the gods that humanity has ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.”  ― Richard Dawkins

that meaning
about life and living – no God
needed – just a good-hearted philosophy

The Top of Hearts

Yes I do! Honestly! And I will – I’m sure. Like to reach that amazing mountain top. Covered with your hesitance. That hesitance I don’t know why it exist. Have you been hurt? Are you shy? I don’t picture you as week. But what do I know! Nothing…

striving to reach
wanting so much – to get closer
your heart

… I just live out my feelings … my curiosity … about you …for now … that mountain top to climb …

… to reach your heart.

And kissing you … on the top of the world.

For ever!

Yes you! …. you know …

Heaven and Earth

A new future – it works well with my release. I have not forgotten that I promised where in the world I would like to go and live …. if …
I like dreaming – but not in pink clouds – it must have a touch of reality – perhaps imagine is a better word than dreaming? Or … I like to picture?
I like to imagine … how it would like … if … I even like the word ‘if’ …

if imagine
picturing that far away – new life
namasté
said and done – aborigines
sharing heaven and earth

I find the greeting ‘namasté’ beautiful and humble. It works very well without a God. We are one and equal. Sun and Moon. Heaven and Earth.
Humble and powerful at the same time. Neither subservient or superior.

that haka
filled with spiritual power
meeting
that namasté so humble
like a fire in the calm sea bay

Did you notice I gave a clue? Do you know about haka?

We are coming closer. But it’s so far away. A beautiful country with exciting nature. And also so interesting people. And all that special kind of tattoos. Telling a story and so personal done. It’s not like here where you go to the tattoo artist and say you want a tiger on your arm. There the tattoo says something spiritual and special about that specific person.
So when I go to New Zealand I must get to know an aborigine tattoo artist … and very well … and then hopefully … he will give me … my special tattoo.
I will probably live on the North Island and in or close to maori area.

Why New Zealand?

I just find it so immensely interesting.

Imagine a really nice kind of living in nice climate and with inexhaustible opportunities for discovery and adventure. Hopefully its not expensive to live there.

off and away
imagine the spiritual way – in
namasté athmosphere

A New Dawn

mountain top – mirroring
the sea bouncing in itself
like a tattoo
