Nature slowly takes over the old mill.
Now is gone in a blink of an eye, ha de Gött!

Skuggor
Skuggor följer oss
lydigt i skydd från ljuset
skuggor täcker oss
suddar ut ljuset
skuggor är vi
i tidens ljusår
skuggor förblir vi
i historiens år
Shadows
Shadows follow us
obedient safe from light
shadows cover us
fades out light
we are shadows
in times lightyears
we remain shadows
in history long years
Without light there can be no shadow, ha de Gött!


I need the connection
to my inner child
playful and curious boy
where every walk an
endless adventure
not a three year old bully
throwing a tantrum
in jealous want to
cheating and stealing
I fear the grown up child
with to many expensive toys
mind of a three year old
our world as playground
fear silence
turn away eyes
from scared followers
in sandbox of simple messages
I want to be the boy
who willingly sharing
make a new friend just
to see someone else smile
Let the innocent child out
laugh, dance, sing in the snow
life's miracle in every grain of sand
filling the beach of truth
with a heart larger than life
Svensk version (Swedish version)
Mitt inre barn
jag vill vara i kontakt
med barnet i mitt sinne
en lekfullt nyfiken pojke
där varje promenad
ett evigt äventyr
inte treåringens tyranni
som skrika och tjuta
i rå avundsjuk vilja
som stjäla och rova
jag räds det vuxna barnet
med för många dyra leksaker
tänker som en treåring
med världen som lekplats
räds tystnaden
bortvända blickar
från rädda följeslagare
i enkla budskapens sandlåda
jag vill vara pojken
som delar med mig
hittar en ny vän bara
för att få se ett annat leende
släpp ut det oskyldiga barnet
skratta, dansa och sjung i snön
se livets mirakel i varje sandkorn
på strandens korn för sanning
med ett hjärta större än livet
Swedish version with help from my son Wendel.
Be like a child but don’t be childish, ha de Gött!


Plate ice is one the wonders of Mother Nature serve us and sometimes she invites to sit down in the sunset.
Video shows how it’s made, ha de Gött!


I just realized editing this photo that it’s unique. The same scene will never appear again. This snow is already gone and even if it will snow again it will at best be, same same but different!
The past is the past but the future is an enigma, ha de Gött!


Ever changing, always the same.
Soothing sounds.
Forest stream.
Take time to just feel, ha de Gött!


This is one of my favourite places, Tjurpannan nature preserve close to my home. Normally it’s quite easily accessible but this day I had to walk 5km in 35 centimetres of snow and at -15°C. I think it was worth it!
Some struggles are worth having, ha de Gött!


Adam the adventures ant Left with a bold chant Walked out the anthill Fearlessly into the evening chill Strongest of animals I am Six times my size, god damn He ran out of luck Six legs was stuck Had to succum' To a chewing gum
You never know what to ant-icipate, ha de Gött!
From the archive.


After some lovely winter days last week with cold and snow it is now 20°C warmer. Rain and melting snow overflows rivers and creeks.
Keep your feet dry, ha de Gött!


Blind
Sometimes wish, I was blind
Untouchable by darkness
Walking the only, one road
Guided by an inner light
Steer me right
In life’s pathless journey
Herded by a shepherd
Holding, rod of confidence
The storming roar of uncertainty
By lighthouse foghorn silenced
A ship softly rolling
Safe at harbour
With a child’s clear eyes
See doubt turn silent
Land me in blind
Faith
Blind (Svensk version)
Önskar ibland, jag vore blind
Onåbar, av mörker
Vandrande den enda vägen
Vägledd, av inre ljus
Styr mig rätt
På livets stiglösa färd
Av en herde ledd
Trygg med sin stav
Ovisshetens stormande vrål
av fyrens mistlur vyssjad
Ett fartyg som rullar mjukt
I trygg hamn
Med barnets klara ögon
Se tvivlet tiga still
Landa mig i blind
Tro
Keep the faith, ha de Gött!
