I meet these two in the morning when I go on my morning walk. They let me come close but not too close.
Oh, dear it’s a deer, ha de Gött!

Horizon
Over the horizon.
Will I find the path.
Or should I walk safe.
In my accustomed steps.
You’ll never truly knows what tomorrow brings, ha de Gött!
Mirage
Hägring
Allt du byggt är en hägring.
Rinner snart genom dina fingrar.
Kvar kan du bara lämna kärlek.
Tiden visar oss ingen nåd.
Som sandkorn för vinden.
Är vi jämlika i tidens öken.
Mirage
Everything you built is but a mirage.
Soon slipping through your fingers.
Only love you can leave behind.
Time show us no mercy.
Like grains of sand in the wind.
We are equals to the desert of time.
It is better to be loved than remembered, ha de Gött!

Lull
Tucking us in, in cotton white light.
For a while life slows down.
Early spring birds sing their lullaby.
I wish good times would last a little longer, ha de Gött!

Happiness
Lyckan
Satt på gyllene pedistal.
Jagar vi och tillber vi den.
Driver oss i olycka.
Men lycka är bara en biprodukt.
Av given du fått.
Och hur du spelar den.
Happiness
Sat on a golden pedestal.
We chase and worship it.
Drives us into misery.
But happiness is just a by-product.
Of the hand you’ve been dealt.
And how you play it.
I’m H. A. P. P. Y, I’m sure I am, I know I am. Ha de Gött!

In the fog
The fog thickens and makes it hard to see what the next steps will bring. We can only hope that the sun will clear the mist.
Have faith and follow the beacon of hope, ha de Gött!

Gargoyle
Vattenkastare
likt vattenutkastare
öppen mun och stenansikten
spyr ut lögner och förnekelse
står vi under, tittar på
någon annan träffas
som har annan färg, på paraplyet
håller palatsen torra
när vi vadar i lögner
förnekar det som skaver
Gargoyles (English version)
like gargoyles
open mouths and stone faces
spewing lies and denial
we stand under, watching
someone else get hit
who has a different colour, on the umbrella
keeping the palaces dry
while we wade in lies
denying what chafes
After rain comes shine, ha de Gött!

Resilience
Knocked down but still fighting.
We all need support from time to time, ha de Gött!

Glowing rocks
Low standing winter sun.
Shines its light over the empty harbour.
Makes the the red rocks glow.
Not all that glitter is gold, ha de Gött!

Hornets Nest
I found this amazing and beautiful structure in the little hut we have in the forest. It’s a Hornets nest from last summer. The hornets chew wood to create paper that is clued together with their saliva. They prefer to build in dark places like hollow trees but can also build in houses.
The European hornet (Vespa crabro), Bålgeting in Swedish, is a rather large insect. The queen can be from 25 up to 35 mm in length, while the worker hornets are between 18 and 28 mm where the male workers are slightly larger. Only the female possess a stinger including the queen. The European hornet is carnivorous and eat other insects, including other wasps.
The European hornet generally avoids conflict but if stepped on or grabbed it will sting. It is also defensive of its nest and around food sources. The sting will hurt but if you’re not sensitive it’s not dangerous. Only the queen survives the winter and wakes up in May when she starts to build a new nest.
Don’t poke around others nests, it will sting. Ha de Gött!
