My love
Don’t walk before me
Don’t walk behind me
Walk beside me
So we can hold hands
That’s what it’s all about.
I can walk miles to meet you
If you walk miles too
and meet me in the middle.

Dementia
When the one you love
is losing the way,
forgetting everything that was.
Seeing everything in another way.
Doesn’t know anymore who you are.
Stranger all the way.
Want to scream mother this is me!! She looks at you but doesn’t see!!
Hurts to the bone
Whole world is falling apart
Losing   someone while they’re still here gives
So much pain in the heart.

~When memories are lost everything is lost~

Many are confronted with a love one with dementia! Very hard thing to deal with.

Panic attacks
When people are living in fear
no one understands.
When something  happens
in your life
putting everything
upside down
Something unexpected
You  lose your balance
sometimes even your control.
The inner peace  has disappeared

This makes,  the once for you so beautiful world,
a fearful place no one
wants to know.
It brings pain to the the heart
and gives a restless soul....

Strong people seem weak now losing their mind,
missing their goal.
Many with panic attacks
no one seems to understand
Its a real thing
Let’s all keep an open mind.

Many people are very stressed now given the situation the world is in.
Stress can have many faces.

To just be
Being in love with life,
with love.
Love for living things.
Nature, music,
You,
who I haven’t met yet.
Like
a melody I haven’t heard yet.
Warming my heart already,
making me happy.
Just waiting to be born.

And there I was, in a colorful world.
Listening to the song of
nature.
Watching all kinds of animals and all kinds of people together in harmony.
Wondering where all the water was.
Then I recognized you.
You are my mother, my brother
my sister
You are me and I love you
Human being.



Shell ✨🐚
We are all human beings. Little different from the outside but just the same !!
Let’s love each other and stop the useless hating.
What’s happening to others today can easily be happening to you tomorrow.
Stop the useless wars.
World Peace please!
I know I am so naive.

Trough moons eyes I see
A world asleep

So many wandering at night
Homeless in the cold
Searching for a place to hide
Lovers whispering,  looking at me.

Ocean at twilight
Ocean waves are restless
It’s that time of the day when the sea waits for the moon to rise
For turning tides and changing surface
to yellow sparkles
Like stars born in liquid gold
The sky says goodbye to sun closing eyes while leaving brushes of bright orange behind
Low hanging clouds like flying dark ducks as if wanting to get home before falling of dark
Mountains afar are turning grey
Going out of sight
It’s time for the lingering love between nightfall and waves
when twilight sets in
at ocean’s side.

Midnight’s dream garden
Take me dream to pleasant dreams
In silence
On  night’s island
where different colored flowers are awake under dark velvet blanket sky
In the presence of white admirals.
Black feline on the hunt
watching carefully this strange behavior.

Listening to silent night
of peaceful midnight longings.
Where in my dream I’ll pick for you beautiful wildflowers
Smell the sweet scent of nights air
while waiting for you
in my dream’s dream garden.

Pine trees,

Snow layered mountain top.
Kissing clouds behind dense fog.

Poetry
Different feelings
All kind of emotions
Precious memories
written down.
A notebook with notes
A box with sometimes
handwritten notes.
A collection of
pieces of the soul
put together
Fragile , precious
To be handled with care and respect.

Sharing your inner feelings.
Every poem is personal
A piece of the soul.

Closer to God
Sitting in rainy weather
Let soft rain caress your face
While there’s much pain and sadness
All the tears are washed away
Lift your face up, search for rainbows and skies blush of bride.
See the colors of life reflected
In the limit of the sky.
Feel the warmth of the sun
on a life full of sadness full of sorrow.
There will always be skies colors,
always an upcoming sun.
Just close your eyes
let tears fall in silence
Blessings of the rain will fall
Warmth of love will lift you up
Carry you to special places
close to colors, close to light
Closer to God.


Shell ✨🐚
Through sorrow and pain
We grow, we learn
Come closer to God
Sitting all by yourself at night
In the presence of moon and star
In the silence of the night
you can hear the sweetness
of a song.
The theme song of love
Like the sweet scent
of nights jasmine.🍃

From hurt to happiness
I am sad.
This balloon is all I have.
Cheering  me up while hurting.
Why parents act so mean.
I rather run away with my balloon
then let it go.

Dear pet
When no one is here
you are by my side
Looking at me as if understanding.
That I’m in need of touching love.
You lick my face.


The words flow out of my mind
On paper white,
screen’s delight.
In many ways
I’ve learned to find
peace of mind.
Look at me now
I am a happy human being.

Always stay positive. Try.

Mirror images
Clear soft blue sky
Not a cloud not a star
See your mirror image
in the  not rippled waters
Two pale moons to  be seen
Not a breeze you can feel
Not a sound you can hear
Silence all around
Giving innerpeace to be
I look at natures flawless painting
Gods own creation
Reminds me of all the mirror images on this earth.
Look at you and see me.

Calming blue ocean
Take me away
waves of see
Carry me to eternity
Rock me with your movements
Lull me into sleep

Calming waves of sea
playing the blues
Come and take a stroll with me.
Whenever you’re down
Beaches rhythm will set you free.

One white rose
Thank you for the rose my love
I fly high and still look at you from above, every day.
I know you have many silent tears and so much pain in your heart.
Yes today was the day and that was the place.
I fell from that wooden bridge and drowned .
You must know I fell because of my seizure.
Your little man I was.
Always together, always taking care of me.
Being sick wasn’t easy on you as a single parent.
But what a love you gave me my love.
What a lovely mom you were.
Know that I’m not far away.
I am free as a bird in the sky
I often come and sing a song in the tree next to your window.
Tell you what I see up there.
It’s all good and I’m not sick here.
My one wish is for you to smile.
Maybe when my little brother arrives.
I will be still here, watching.
Thank you for the rose my love.

Luscious tree 🌳
Deep inside me is this seed
In search of light and water
to grow, before it’s soil runs dry.
Deep inside me is this dream that wants to awaken
to make itself come true,
before the sleep is over.
Deep inside me is this love in need of someone else’s love
To go hand in hand through life,
before horizon’s dawn.

The seed is in the dream
The dream is in the love
The love is in my being

The seed becomes a tree
The dream a shining light
The love the carrier of peace.

Journey over turbulent waters ends.
Kayak of life standing still.

In the depths of the eyes
Look at inner self
Where do this strong feelings
come from
The ones you have to live with day by day
The dreams that haunt you all the way
The restlessness
The hidden passion of a soul in pain
You are beautiful and strong
Take a look inside, who did you wrong?
Who left you alone and broken
So much guilt you carry with you.
Take a good look and know it wasn’t your fault.
It wasn’t your fault that they left .
I hope you can see that now.
Leave it behind and heal your inner core.
It’s time to let it go and move forward.
Let the strong adult you
take care of this  hurt innerchild The one that’s still inside of you.
Only then the sadness in the depths of your eyes will go away
Only then the smile
will also reach the eyes

Heal your inner child to be free and happy .
