Walking from home to school

The why's and why-not's
determine the shape we're in.
Foggy spring mornings.

Call a friend if you're lonely

November always gets us.
White lines of web.
Spider centered life.

Reincarnation: A myth?

A frozen leaf lies,
broken by the sound of wind.
I came home today.

We didn't think dark would last

We didn't think dark would last
and color purple trees. We
thought the day would break
and quench the emptyness.
The nothingness that
makes us steal time to make up
stories to stand the truth
When we counted life in hours
the world would fit in our hands
and awe us.
We left the worrying to the dead.

Instructions for a busy day

Work a day ahead.
Run three blocks in stead of two.
Watch a swallow fly.

XVI (Live) by This Is Head

It takes quite a long extension chord, but then you get a great concert at the lake, between the rocks and the trees. All music belongs to nature.



Stop the days from transitioning

For once keep a hold of the day. Stop
it from transitioning. Turn actions
into stills. Her changing moods
into portraits. Prevent the skin from
aging. The heart from wearing out. Or
let the days fade as they do, but then
prevent me from remembering.

Love leftovers

Golden trees stand still.
I think of you and miss you.
Past and present grieve.

Frail Angels by Warren Malone

Some artists surprise me. Not just by their quality of music, but also by the fact that they're not famous. Warren Malone probably is a good example. He has a wonderful voice. When I hear him sing, I forget to listen to the words. Even when he sings some folk traditional, I can't stop listening.
The song shared here is not a traditional. On the contrary. It has a great classical intro with a Celtic atmosphere. Or maybe it's influenced by Balkan music. You tell me. The song is taken from his 1997 album 'Spit 'n kisses'. If you like it and you're a Sounclouder, you should listen to all his other songs and follow him.

A desire for spring

Here's a picture I took almost a year ago. It's simple. Maybe even common. But every time I look at it, it generates a strong feeling of indeterminate desire. A desire for spring, like I have now for instance. Do you feel it too?
"Loving spring from the inside"

Birth

Human strength is meant to endure storms, not to defeat them. So when a cold front is heading, stand still and be mindful. For no greater serenity can be found then in the time before.

Love leftovers

Golden trees stand still.
I think of you and miss you.
Past and present grieve.

Gray skies, rusty iron

Fly high and gracious,
the eagle and the swallow.
Some trains never stop.

Just in time for the next second

I started running,
fast forward and then rewind.
Leafs ended summer.
