Inte Tråkig i Alla Fall!

en djup suck
följt av många fler – värst
vad tråkigt

Ja så kändes det precis – från och med den andra delen – och hela vägen mot slutet. Det var en speciell dansföreställning. En speciell koreograf. Fast – är inte alla koreografer speciella? Jag tror de vill vara det – i alla fall. Alla konstnärer vill nog vara speciella. Fast – kanske inte Lars Lerin. Han kryper omkring inne i sig själv på ett så underbart öppet sätt.

Jag vill också vara speciell!

Inte tråkig i alla fall.

People Passing

I turn my back
on Buddha and face
the cool moon


Interesting history about Shiki, I think, when reading. I get curious and search more haiku by him. I must say I find them a bit difficult to like and he will probably not be a favorite of mine. But the haiku I choose above – I think goes well with his history – being radical and not allowed to give public speech. I think he felt a cool and hostile society then.

saw the country
and returned—now deep at night
I lie in bed and
fields of mustard flowers
bloom before my eyes


I myself had a wonderful day today – meeting friendly people and feeling spring – also love – in the air. I walked along the Danube passed a young couple …

she giggled
swaying her head ‘n hair backwards – and
he kissed her

… I smiled and felt happy for them – went on my walk. After passing two bridges I sat down. Studied the Japanese – or Chinese – turists modeling with Chain Bridge and Buda castle in background. A young handsome man did beautiful moves – Qigong – while his girlfriend filmed him with iPhone. I enjoyed and felt such nice harmony.
I laid back and closed my eyes … poetry popped up …

I’m sitting
by the river Danube
feeling the wind
dancing in my face
and playing with my hair

*

whirls of water
coming from down under
to hit the water surface
just to play with
the sun rays

*

people passing by
know nothing, nothing at all – about
wind and water playing

… this very minute … a moment I liked so much. I got a crazy idea. Why not film and record! So I did. But when listening I thought … how sad and sleepy I sound … that’s not me. Think it was because I didn’t want anyone to hear what I was doing.

Would you like to listen to it? Perhaps I can get enough guts to publish 😉

If you want – I will publish here … it’s on the way to Youtube just now …. ready … scroll down … 😉

River Danube


So here it is … (I think I have to ask my granddaughter about advice for recording) …

Far & Close

I wonder – like Rodriguez – often about a lot of things from … how the brain works … about similar structures in nature … both built up and movements … to how the universe works … about why the ‘great wall’ exists there far out …

Now I wonder why is it ‘hideout’ and not ‘hidein’?

out in space
tasting all of everything – with love
in my heart

From what I wonder about to what I’m fascinated about … I’m so very much fascinated about ‘far and close’ … in pictures … photos … picture makings … imagination … I often struggle to keep ‘far and close’ in mind … with me. As well as ‘whole and detail’. That suits perfect in all subjects. Politics as well as … you name it!

Today I will ‘hideout’ and enjoy Scottish dancers and then I will go and ‘hidein’ at home sweet home.

Far & Close! – The Whole & The Parts. – Structures & Details.

Far & Close - Whole & Parts.

Daily Prompt: Hideout.


A Cocktail for Life

loneliness
lies within the listener –
a cuckoo’s call
(c) Chiyo-Ni

morning glories –
awakened
in the middle of a dream

(c) Chiyo-Ni


I pick up the loneliness thread …. It’s a bit sad thinking about loneliness … or? Being alone doesn’t mean loneliness. I often like to be alone. Worst is when people feel loneliness when being with other people, I think.

loneliness
travelled sadly to the heart
raindrops falling

Nobody should need to feel loneliness in a caring society. When will we get there?
So far … just a dream…
dreaming high
a struggle up the mountain
to a shrine view
To dream is crucial important, I think. And just as important is that … the dreams do not have to come true. They just are giving so much feeling-good on the way – while dreaming. To be able to dream you need a good portion of imagination and fantasy. Best spices for living life I think.
honey in mind
smooth start for fantasy – sets
pinecones rolling
Now thinking about how wonderful the coconut oil is for the skin. … Has to be another chapter …
Until then … Please have a cocktail for life ….
A Cocktail for Life!

With Love – QUEEN in Life

I saw you. In cyber. I wanted you! So very much. Said it was perfect and that you looked so smart. You answered. You looked upon me with younger eyes. Didn’t see me as ‘ an old woman’.  In a way you are right. My soul is young and so is my heart. But! My years are my treasure chest. I want every single to be counted up to date. I like my age. Actually I love my age. It’s just so perfect for me!
So is you!

black and white
in it’s most gorgeous perfect way
queen of life

I cannot wait …. I know you will arrive in a few days …

Never underestimate an old WOMAN born in June - listening to QUEEN


You suggested but I wanted …

Life is a Pilgrimage

I have had some wonderful days now with my elder sister. I am so fortunate! Just saying! My sisters are just so wonderful. Every moment I spend with either of them or both is moments to keep in my heart. Has always been. No pilgrimage can compares to the time with sisters. My sisters.

best pilgrimage
all these journeys – dearest
my heart sings

A life Pilgrimage – mine with my sisters …

we share
the same start – oh life
fragile and strong

A life Pilgrimage – alone or together …

always another
page of day to fill – tastes
so exciting

… and tomorrow will bring some more … I am ready!

Me and my sisters - I am the middle one.
I am the middle one 😉
A long time ago.
