Moon angels 😇
When the night turns black
And the moon is asleep
No one is watching earth
That’s when
they come out of hiding
All along they’ve been there
Watching
their beloved moon and earth
Taking care
Now asleep with closed eyes
A tender smile
Angels all around you
and so in love.
Kissing you lightly
on the cheek.

Forever in love
Up and up I fall
Deeply in love, losing all gravity
As sun sets and moon rises
With you is where I choose to be
In every life I’ll wait for you
Till we meet again and again
To sing our song
before the night is over.

Missing your roots
Sitting alone
Thinking again and again
The images in my conscience can’t go away
I’m reminded every giving moment when I’m alone.
You gave me away
For what?
To thrive?
I don’t fit in in this society.
I’m from my land and my sea.
Miss my own people
I miss the old me.
I’m a stranger who doesn’t fit in.
I tried, God how I tried.
There is this long forgotten song
deep in me.
I’ve cried every night since you left me here.
I’m blood of your blood
How can’t you understand me.
Or feel what I feel.
Mother don’t you miss me?

Forbidden love.🥀
There is this intense light
Shining from within
Yes I carry you
I carry you within.
I took the love I feel for you
put it in a woodenbox
Locked it with a golden lock
Put a diamond stone on top
And buried it in my heart
Precious jewel in my heart
Shine and lighten up my heart.
Forever and always!
Forbidden things can preferable stay hidden.

Look in the mirror

Deep in the eyes
You’ll see me.

Smile
Positive vibe,
Soothing gentleness

A connection from deep inside

Connection without words
No matter the circumstances

To survive, makes a happy someone
Makes a happy you too.

Time.
Winter season,
grey colorless skies
Silence,
audible in the distance.
Empty feeling in crowded house.
Long, chilly nights, dead water streaming.
Veins with cold blood, stuck.
Passion in black clothes, not breathing.

The year is moving, Spring in birth canal.
Waiting to be born.
I think of you, lying beside you .
I dream of movements of bold trees.
It excites me.
I know it’s wrong but in my mind it’s full blown spring.
A white cloud is coming to me.
Like a bride in cotton candy.
Thinking of you, no more winter skies.

I close my eyes.
In my mind there you are.
There is an explosion of fire in the sky.
Summer in your eyes,
reflecting colors of a sky, burning.
I’m drifting.
It’s summer in my head and my mind is singing.


With passing time,
new days
new seasons
new loves
New memories.
Time, essential to it all.

Mona Lisa triste
Truth and sadness are always silent.

Mona Lisa , Mona Lisa
Men must have just told you
How beautiful you are.
What all seem to have missed
is the sadness behind the smile.
When you look
throughly and  sincerely
you can see the pain within the eyes.

We all have a little bit of Mona Lisa inside.

The wind
Mysterious wind
Moving air in four directions
You present yourself in different ways.
Sometimes you stand still
Carry me over land
Cross me over oceans
Bring me to where earth ends
Sometimes you make me fly
Sweet whispers in my ear
Lift my spirit up
You move everything you touch.
Bring tears to my eyes.

Breathing colors.
I was dreaming in black and white,
making me sad.
When I opened my eyes
I saw movements
without a face, coming my way.
Still dreaming with open eyes.

I was in a garden,
heard breathing in my ears.
Falling terracotta leaves surrounding me.
Young green little ones on bold trees,
announcing the beginning of spring.

A soft tune from afar coming my way, caressing my skin.
I turned blue.
It told me a story, it couldn’t be true.
Children from far in pain.
Realized it was the wind, silver silk, enveloping me.

I closed my eyes once again.
Dancing pastel flowers in the wild, whispering in fragrant tongues, it opened my mind.

I was walking at the beach
hot white sand like a healthy blanket welcoming me.
Sloshing azure water, touching my feet.
Coming and going like a lovers movement against me.
I felt a heartbeat pulsating beneath me.

I looked up above at flying birds,
chirping, calling,
representing their life.
Then, an explosion of colors filled up the sky.
Moving, changing, as day turned into night.

Velvet ceiling in midnight blue suit
with little diamonds,
watching you.
Nightlife on Earth, smiling, crying.
Passion and pain.
Oh if only they knew….
That I know.
Life, nothing more
then breathing colors, merging.
A painting of feelings, nothing more.

Life, in so many different ways.
Happiness, sadness and pain.

Just be....
Don’t force something
that doesn’t come naturally.
Be like a ship sailing free.
Don’t  need no anchor to anchor you.
Don’t need no label to label you.
You are who you are.
and that is,  free!!
To be who you are
To say what you feel
To do what you want
Let everyone be
so that this world can become
a better world for you and me!!

New creation
Peaceful caressing dawn.
Golden eye of awakening
sun.
Peeping in early morning’s song,
above horizon’s east.
Reflections in rippleless waters.
Showing the beauty twice.
In silence a bird calls from afar.
Soft breeze of wind’s whisper.
The world so quiet in sunrise clothing.
Overwhelming feeling
when looking at our Creator’s new creation.
A new day.

Thankful for just another day.

Reflections of mourning.
I look up to the sky in despair
When will I feel better
Life isn’t fair
Long to be happy to feel again
Feel like a stranger in my own skin.
Long gone are the days
When you were all here
Still feels like yesterday
the whole family together
Can’t forget still miss it so much
I’m afraid of this darkness
Everything so cold, it’s tough.
I am sad at the inside
Everything grey surrounding me
nothing to hold on to
No green leaves to be seen
No blue skies
Even the waters refuse to flow
Birds are still, sitting, waiting
As if mourning with me.
All dark and empty
Reflections of me.
I miss my home, my land
nothing left within me.
No feelings
They are all gone
Forever broken
Heart feels like a stone
No warmth,  everything
cold as ice,
I’m frozen inside.

This is how they feel.  Traumatized.
So it takes time to heal.

Scents of fall
It’s getting colder
Autumn is around the corner.
Green leaves leave.
Orange, golden to brown to see.
Scents of earth come along
with terracotta colors,
fragrance of hay
Mint like cool in the wind
touching the skin.
Peppermint taste in my mouth
At home smell of baked potatoes,
chocolate and cinnamon welcome me.
I know an apple pie is in the oven.

Oh fragile baby bird
With your shaggy feathers
Looks  like you are sad
Did you fall out from your nest
or did mama set you free?

Seems you have no clue.
How to fly and to get by.

A lonely silent passerine.
Sitting , watching,waiting
Hoping that some day
She can fly too!

Falling dream from heaven
My dream fell from heaven
right before my eyes
Salmon flooded planet like light
changing tides of waters
Fireball on liquid platinum you float
Seducing me, moon lover,
to come closer
and finally touch my forever delight
Wish this night would never pass
Everlasting,
forever before my eyes.
How will I ever sleep again
when all I want is watch you now
shining from nearby.

Find things

Shows you how to
reach heaven from there.

Invisible pain
Pain, sorrow and sadness from deep within.
The kind you can’t express,
can’t verbalize cause there are no words
to display the hurt you’re in.
The kind of sadness that makes you numb,  there seems no way how to overcome.
It’s a feeling that changes your view
On what this life is all about
and what lies ahead for you.
Translucent tears that fill the eyes are healing waters which wash away the sorrow of the heart.
When the eyes stay dry while the soul is in pain
that is when you have to worry
about the strain.
That’s when real trauma takes root,
that’s when you need guidance from above to survive mentally on your way.
We are all human beings with
all kinds of stress
Takes strength and a loving environment
to survive life’s tests.
Life is for many so hard and unfair,
it’s up to us all to help and lighten each other’s path.
So next time you meet someone quiet
with pain in dry eyes
try to reach out
to ease the mind.
Try to be  the light on their path.
Be part of their healing.

We all feel the same pain when hurt.
When sad. When disasters strike.

Graceful being
The power of God
is what’s in you
On your mind
Your thoughts
What you do with
what you know
and how you feel.
How you express yourself
The way you walk and talk.

Kind are those who are grateful
for every little blessing in their life
When body and mind are one
there is harmony within.
When there is harmony
there will be Inner peace.
Like a swan over calm waters
Moving silently.
Gracefully.

Over silent waters
The swan is sliding
Nothing seems to be moving
Not even the waters
Full of elegance

Out of gratefulness came gracefulness.

The kiss
Why do you watch openly from afar but getting closer you got so shy.
Hiding behind the tree
Afraid I’m going to touch thee
I guess I want a kiss from you
A kiss is just a kiss
Or a sign
When it’s more then what it seems
and
butterflies are not death but still alive
It’s the beginning of something new.
A touch of the heart.


behind a cloud you hide
in my dreams I search for you
lingering moon love

Thank you
Dear friend,
You walk with me and hold my hand
On days there is no sun
for me
No rainbow on grey sky
You listen to my agony
Even wipe my tears when I cry.

All you do to make me forget
To make me smile again
I know I always can count on
you when everyone else
has left.

You’re also the first to call
and ask me “friend how are you”
The last to leave my side
In the darkest of my days
You never walk away.

Dear friend you are very dear to me.
The best friend one can have.
You really are my mainstay.
A lightbeam in my dark.
I want to let you know
today and say
“ Thank you”.



Shell✨🐚
Thank you my friend.
In the midst of summer heat
I dream of autumn colors.
Wanted to be on my parents farm again
by the big oak tree turning golden orange.
Many memories and longings overwhelming me.
It was there that I drew a heart together with my young forever love.
I can still smell the scent of hay in the barn
where I had my first kiss lying in his arms.
Precious are those moments back in mother’s kitchen, where we made shepherds pie, boiled potatoes
on an open fire.
Long gone are those days, still part of my everyday living.
There is where my core is,
part of me wants to go back.
Mountain’s view,
pine trees standing tall in silence.
Dear deer walking by looking at me with big dark eyes.
I feel tears falling.
I hear my mother calling
For me to come inside and leave this town behind.

We always long to go back home.
Where it was warm and safe.

If only dreams could bring you back.
