Sometimes we get it wrong
too much information
to the loo
he enthusiastically admired
Per in wrinkles
doesn’t make sense
I’ll go and look for some periwinkles, toodle-oo. Ha de Gött!

Fading
Colourless in the snow
The dead oak tree
Refusing to fall
Resilient and beautiful
Stretching branches to the universe
A fading memory
Ha de Gött!

Spring Winter
roaring in dark skies on chariots from north roams the night biting frost and cold King Frost allied with the sun carried by bird song shyly takes the day gentle warmth and light Princess Spring melts winter away
There is time for everything and there is a time for everything, ha de Gött!

On track
Rhythmic steel chime
like a lullaby of
longing
home and away
Life’s a journey, ride on. Ha de Gött!

Icicle
On a slippery slope
left hanging still
until morning drop
When life stops, dare to let go. Ha de Gött!

Fairy tale road
Mysterious forest track
what’s around the bend
will I meet Rapunzel
long blond hair from a cliff tower
stumble over racing hare and a hedgehog
smoke smelling and well fed Hänsel und Gretel
is that a cat in a hat and boots
feel the stare in the neck from seven ravens
a few steps further seven short men singing
Cinderella and Snow White dancing hand in hand
Sweet dreams, ha de Gött!

Waiting
It’s February and nature awaits the coming of spring.
Any day now birds will start to sing.
Good things come to those who waits, ha de Gött!

Evolution
We have evolved to harness the forces of nature Homo Sapiens - the sensible man on top of the evolution hierarchy the grown up among species but we behave like spoiled children sense of consequences underdeveloped stripping Mother Earth of her gifts like a pack of hungry Hyenas will we ever grow up and face consequences of our actions learn to never take more than we need
The future is not there because we can’t see it, or….. Ha de Gött!

Waves
Softly rolling onto the shore
whooshing to a crescendo to break
pulling back to the great blue
to collect new courage
for a new caress of the rock
dandling back and forth
a lullaby of natures infinity
Keep calm and stay safe, ha de Gött!
Check out more waves on my Instagram.

Migraine
Creeping up from behind
its target it will find
with kaleidoscope light
blocking out all sight
the brain, a freight train
on a poor track full of pain
in full frantic spin around
heavy metal amplified sound
pray it soon will stop
before your eyeballs pop
in throbbing agony weep
hope for oblivion of sleep
There is only one good killer, painkiller. Ha de Gött!
