She looked up
Wishing for a falling star
To make a wish, a dream come true
The stars stared back
Taken by the sparkles that out shined them
One by one they started falling.

Food
Simplicity of food is complicated.
In food we find long lost memories
We find mother
We find family
Sharing food, stories and laughter.
Makes it taste so good.
Preparing the meal as important as having it together.
Food brings you back
to home, back to your roots.
It’s a matter of appreciation.
Food means love, joy and connection.
Aroma of food triggers the senses gives you the feeling of deja vu.
Suddenly you’re back in your mothers kitchen
Back in her arms.

Importance of food. More then just that

Soul searching
Don’t chase to long my love.
You could lose your way to me
in this life and dark universe.
Our dreams would never com true.
The many paths in this cosmos

Look closely you’ll find me.
I am here.

Lockdown
So many people frustrated
and locked in. No income.
They don’t know what to do where to begin!
Now it’s the time to read a book
What’s inside you , take a look
Write down what and how you feel
Gives one a great relief and can save a soul.

Ribbon of colors
Colors of God
put together ribbon
gateway to the heavens
Warmth of love is what it means.
A silent hint  after rain
or before it falls
Sunbeams  bringing color to light
Lift  your eyes up to the sky
out of the blue comes a rainbow and makes you smile
It’s the mirror of life itself
A reminder to never lose hope
A welcome sign.
That all will be good.

With only your mind and imagination you can’t reach your destination.
Work hard and stand up after every fall
If failure is the mother of success then
Perseverance is for sure  the father.
Catch a fly and fly high.

Cry in the dark.
What’s happening in the world today.
Wars everywhere.
People shooting people because of different faith,
greed for one little piece of land.
Missiles thrown at innocent women, children and men.

Once
A child grew up on conflict ground.
Saw all family and friends dying.
Born was the devil in him.
Only rage in a traumatized mind.
A planted seed without love.
Devil he will become.
Don’t you see.
Killing each other to have peace leads to nothing but loss.
Loss of love and loved ones.
Revenge leading to nothing but pain and end of everything
nothing has been gained.
Keep feeding hate with hate.
Wars will know no end.

Don’t throw bombs at innocent ones.
Children are just children wherever they’re from
No matter on which side of the borders they are.
Don’t you see you only create hate with what you do.
There is no faith that says go hurt
**** a child or a helpless man.

You can’t stop the hate with hate.
You can stop hate with nothing but love.
Please for once learn from the past.
You don’t have a winner in war.
You think that you might have won.
But there is that child somewhere
with rage in the heart.
And everything starts all over again.


Shell ✨🐚
Please stop the wars. Stop the killings of innocent ones. It doesn’t make you a hero .

Blushing moon
I’m taking the highway through nature
to fly me to the universe.
Finding black holes leading me into other galaxies.
To find my own milky runway cherry blossom moon.
Where portals are being opened
far beyond existing cotton candy clouds.
and where stars are nearby.
Where the moon is a reflection
of a blood sun.
Purple moon with golden halo
why are you blue sometimes.
Disappearing on your dark canvas
making me a moonless night.
Come out and shine your pink moonbeams on Earth,
making Earthlings blush
under your charming creamy eyes .

Are we that bad?

Magic of Christmas Eve.
When midnight is here
Christmas trees are coming to life.
All the angels are humming, watching universe lightening up while reindeer fly higher and high.
Eyes delight.
Heaven opens sending blessings to a world in need.
It’s the wonder of birth of our Savior.
All planets are silent.
Observing caribou like creatures without wings, flying.
And Christmas begins….
Close your eyes,
Pray and sing.

In this time it’s very hard to believe in the magic of Christmas.
Still let’s be positive and keep praying.

Bird in the hand
The passerine sits silently
Nights are cold and there isn’t always enough food.
Every night,
quietly she is waiting
She knows he will come
She waits and watches
The man sits and watches the bird too
Every day before nightfall
She will come to the porch and sit quietly
It’s the same play every day
An unspoken bound
Closer and closer she’ll come
In need of company
A hand
Reaching out
And there she was.
Slowly she descends
Right into his inviting hand
Harmony.
You better enjoy the one  bird in the hand then two in the bushes.
Let’s be good to nature and nature will be good to us.
Life always has a silver lining.

Little blackbird
Little blackbird back from heaven
How come you sing so fine
Your voice so clean
Is it your love you call?
Are  you telling what you’ve seen above ?
Or are you calling your baby birds,
letting them know you’re on your way with food and love.
Oh precious little bird,
high you fly,  you think you can reach the sky.
Letting know what you saw up there.
Telling me with your song so fine.
Making my day.

Blackbird sing your beautiful song and make my day.

Shattered rose 🥀
Soft smile in pastel color
Under sun so bright
Waited forever all evening
to bloom in shining light
Then someone
killed a living dream
Sad and shattered feelings
Still the scent will linger
Cause a rose it is.

A rose will always be a rose.

Dying
There is this place
the source.....
of being
There is this light....
where we were born
where we return
when time  no longer
lingers.
When all goes dark
and eyes no longer seeing.
While  Life floats away silently
and choir singing hummingly
The  Spirit flows
Into this light
Enlightening  the soul
so bright ......
while crossing over .

Faith
Faith means
believing in something
you’ve never laid eyes on.
It’s an experience.
Unshakable!! Rock solid.
Something to hold on to.
Everybody should have faith
in something......
to get you through this life!
When the earth turns
and the places don’t move
But also
when an earthquake hits
and everything is falling apart.

Shell ✨🐚
We all need something to hold on to in good times and in bad times!!

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.

I took my moon

Kayaking on waves of a melody
Where different tunes made me fly
Up to heaven between the stars
Then I reached out for the moon
Plucked her gently from the sky.
To give to you.
