Ode to the moon 🌙
The moon and I
We speak a silent language
For me it’s a lamp
between the stars
Every night I look up at the sky
I search for my moon
To make me smile.
Like a devine decoration
you light up
midnight blue ceiling
every time
Seems you’re only there for me
Never have I ever
wished upon a star
when all I do is look at you.

Healing herb 🌿
From the seed of love
Only alluring blossoms
will follow.
Let your intentions be
fertile soil
plant the way
to infinite humanity.
Instead of ruins
create
everlasting flower gardens.

Only love for one another,
no matter race, color or religion,
Can save this world.

We are in the middle of flood
and fire simultaneously
Drowning while burning
The burning tree of olive
will reach the bottom of the flood
Where it will shoot new roots.

So many disasters everywhere.
We must stay strong.
Pray for all the victims

Lost loved one
Like parfume of the cherry blossoms
Rising up to heaven
Walking through the streets
memories of what used to be
connected with all senses.
A long lost melody
bringing  everything back to life right before my eyes.
Pleasure, pain and delight.
All feelings
You are
like music, a song, a prayer
Forever on my mind.

Scent, a melody, a song bring back memories of lost loved ones

First day of everything
Lying in bed
The rain sings it song
Then
The sun looks down
On a fresh Earth today
New day, new start
of the New Year, of life
The wind with
whispering sound from afar
Messages to passing leaves
Blue from the sea
Birds lovely tunes heard from above
To give signs to baby birds
Mama is coming with love
With food for opening beaks
And to tell what she has seen, living drones.
Lying in bed I close my eyes
Not ready yet
All nature sounds like a lullaby
Puts me back to sleep.

Heartache
The most painful things remain unsaid .
They are carved in a heart
So utterly sad.
The most beautiful words written
Come from a heart in pain.
Still...
So much pain
Remains.

Many people are so sad for whatever reason. They seldom talk about the cause of this.

Camouflage
Standing in the sun
Putting on dark glasses
To protect eyes from
the sun
and to conceal
the hurt that’s in the eyes
hard hidening.

Standing in the rain
You can’t see
the teardrops
falling softly on the  face
blending in
with falling rain
All because of pain

Hard to hide are
those trembling lips.
Full with sad emotions
One would think
They want a kiss.....
Now with mouth/ nose cap
What good camouflage
this is.

Covid made us cover half our face. When you put on sunglasses you can really hide your face behind this. No one can know what’s going on just by looking.

The cause
Addiction
Trauma in the roots
Pain
Escaping
Everything  closing in
Tears like rivers
In the end you’re drowning

It’s not you....
It’s what’s done to you.
Be open
For help.
Talk.




Shell✨🐚
Many are struggling with unsolved feelings.
Pain.
Aggression is what we see.
When someone behaves a certain way, don’t judge. It often comes from pain deep within.
Layer upon layer
Petals close embrace.
Like
my lovers closing arms.
A rose fully open.
Waiting… to be plucked.
Red rose from lover’s Eden
Fover your gardener I’ll be.

One red rose.

Royal bluebell
Lovely ancient woodland wildflower,
protected you are.
Velvet sea of blue you can create
Your bell like appearance makes you look sad
It’s not because of the upcoming sun
you hang your head
It’s just the way you thrive
In partial shade.
Still you grow too where waters meet land
For humility and gratitude you stand
and the world loves you.

The Bluebell, a protected wildflower.
Seems purple in light of sun.

Life’s tsunami
One day you wake up
Realizing that nothing you lived, was.
Everything one big deceptive illusion
of something that never was.
Misinterpretation, sensory misconception.
False believe, drowning idea before even coming to life.
Feeling cheated on so many levels.
After thinking it was solid ground
you were standing on.
Like a severe earthquake
hitting everything that was built fragile.
Hitting it with one blow away.
Still so much love inside
holding hands with deep sadness.
Keep going with the flow,
you just can’t drown now.
Living breathing life
while  it’s so suffocating.
Still smiling,
while everything inside
has been broken,
time after time.




Shell ✨🐚
Stay positive and hopeful no matter what.
It are the little things in life that  made it worth living for.

Mother Nature
Reflection of  sundrops
As diamonds moving
rough bright rock vulcanos
Goldmines shining
through the grounds ,
in the dirt hiding
Ready for mining
Pearls under sea at
oceans bottom
Sheltered by  shells
Covered up by plastic waste
All this richness of this earth
in the darkest of all places.
That’s the beauty of Mother Nature
Till greed of men ruined everything.
Global warming at the end.
End of planet Earth , Human kind
and Mother Nature

Still praying together
Still thanking
For another day.

Color me with love
As I walked out of my black and white world
in my grey colored clothes leaving behind the ruins of my life which was full of sadness full of fear.
Like stepping in a new dimension of space.
I saw colors so bright they hurt my eyes but bring joy to my heart.
Looking up to this infinite sky
I saw all shades of blue going over in turquoise
at the end I saw colors of a blushing sky with a glow on the cheeks, soft rose and soft pastel.
Crown of white was holding this up like  pieces of white cotton candy  so sweet, I just keep looking up.
Then I felt a light breeze from a soft blue wind ,
listening careful there was a message within.
Messages coming from afar reaching the ear
touching the heart.
I could hear the cries of people in pain, children in fear what a shame.
Could this beautiful sky be theirs too?
Yes it is,  I was one of them too.
Looking around what beautiful trees,
all kinds of green but also orange, yellow and pink.
Fields of tulips, red roses and yellow daffodils everywhere!
Indeed these are the colors of Spring.
Many butterflies and bees in the air
Buzzing around in search for a kiss.
The sounds of happy birds flying high taking dives back to earth.
I felt like Alice in wonderland
finally found after getting lost.
In reality
It was just another day in war.

We all must try to help the people in war. Shower them with colors of love.

What must it feel like being a child in war.
So many traumatized children. Because of greed and lust for power of grownups.

As a child
Sitting on a swing
was the nearest way to fly.
Higher and higher you would go
Eyes closed while  hands holding the ropes tight
Almost touching the sky
Sitting in the car
Counting houses as you pass
Fantasizing what’s going on inside.
Lying on the grass watching
clouds from afar
Seeing all your heroes
come to life right there in the sky
Although you look at life quite different now
this inner child will never die.
Still looking at clouds in the sky!!

Your inner child is always there.

Melody of life
Angels humming quietly
Soft melody of the divine
Song in children’s happy laughter
travel up through clouds and rain
to gates of cherry blossoms sky.
Melody of love and sadness
In the hearts of everyone.
Deeply hidden in baby’s innocence.
Going all life long
Till in old men broken smile.

Real life
She was crying
Her girl, 15 years old,
was in the ICU
It was a suicide attempt
Reason, they don’t know
Parents divorced 3 years ago
Both in new relationships now
She didn’t pass the final exams
Her mother’s boyfriend just moved in with them
And people ask whatever reason made her do such a thing.
Think!!

Parents must think before taking decisions that effect children and teens.
Many unhappy and traumatized because of decisions parents make.

Falling leaves

Through their eyes
My happiness is gone
tears in my eyes
Only sadness
When I know I am not welcome
No one wants me in their land
I’ve been running from my once called home
They smoked us away
Do you know how that feels?
To know that nowhere on this earth there is a place for me?
Where I’m welcome to stay and build a home?
You judge me because?
I am just a child, I am lost
Walked miles every day in sun and rain with stomach pain.
A burden in everybody’s land
Yes I know it’s theirs,
their right by birth.
I have none.
They let me know every second that passes by that
I’m not welcome here and nowhere.
Can you imagine  how that feels?
Do you know where and how I live? You wouldn’t last a day.
Only sadness on my mind
Eyes filled with tears all the time. Emptiness inside.
So much pain so much grief.
Is it fair to be a child like me?
Just because!!
You could easily have been me.
Think about that.
