Ball

Ball

Kicked around, goal, netted, offside.

Laughter, cries, joy, celebration.

Desire of twenty-two, referee, cheering crowd.

Trimmed lawn, sidelines, corner shot.

Still, locked in, forgotten, rotten.

Round the ball is, ha de Gött!

Playing

Playing

play mates
forest and water
swirling down the hill 

in an whimsical stop and go

water push trough 
forests attempts to hold back
its friend 

float along 
branch and stick
see where it goes 

to the noisy roaring ocean wind 

freeze a moment in cold north wind
rippling to birds accompaniment
and treetops whooshing

till we meet again

Stay in the moment, ha de Gött!

Sail Away

Sail Away

Lonely fisherman sailing out to sea

Navigating shallow waters, inserts and island

Cliffs scraped naked by wind, not a single tree

Confidently steers along coast and strand

True and simple, a way to be

Life is a voyage, navigate with caution, ha de Gött!

Frozen seeds

Frozen seeds

Waiting for the playful spring winds

sail away to the soft thawing soil

kissed by the innocent April sun

sprout out tall bright and green

eaten by a hungry cow, shit!

Green, green grass of home, ha de Gött!

Cruising

Cruising

There was a warm light breeze

I sat there thinking

why good times never, last a bit longer

the fish had gone

taken an afternoon nap

sleeping it off, in the soft bottom clay

sail past me, silently

in the soft summer wind

the last day, of summer

Best things in life are free, ha de Gött!

Cool off

Cool off

They said I was getting too hot, blowing my fuses

Don’t make such fuzz, just go with the buzz

All winter sleep it off, hibernate

I was getting worked up, would not take more abuses

Fake news, just a bunch of lies to uz

There’s no winter, I will debate

Challenge, but don’t be foolish, ha de Gött!

Reliance

Reliance

Never give in or budge. Go to the top.

Can’t beat them, join them. Move or get passed over.

Solid as a rock. Firmly stand ground.

Now linked together as one. Still stand when you fall.

Up or down, all is intertwined, ha de Gött!

Want and Need

Want and Need

Want it, got to have it!

That young hot wife to drive off with, in that shiny red sports car. Hair flying in the speed wind.

That brand new phone, backside covered in camera lenses. Join the click party of the happy fit people.

That endless holiday, far stretched tropical white sand beach. Beer served by minimalistic dressed waitresses.

That top management job, private jet to close those big deals. Bank account flooding over by the minute.

That stare from the nightclub queue, sweeping passed. Arms wrapped around curves.

Need, not much.

To live, love and be loved, a family to hug.

Friends, beer, a laugh. Music and a bite to eat.

Don’t cross the stream to get water, ha de Gött!
