Day 1697, cupcakes.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Four left

with joy

~

an other birthday

for you I don’t know

~

maybe I take one more

my guilty pleasure

a gift to you

Day 1694, rhythm.

Day's pictures, Poetry

The sunrise today

brightened the mist

I was driving trough

~

the treetops

I see

far away

appear

and disappear

with no rhythm

in the wind

~

it calms me down

to see the aimless

belie the motions

of the cogs

I hear

and feel

in my head

Day 1690, accordion.

Day's pictures, Poetry

With both my hands

I have been

playing indifferent

tunes

~

finally I move

the bellow left

and for one more time

the blowhole calls

with a sour note

the deaf

~

and silence

Day 1689, a round.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Where ever I come

and walk away

~

the road leading

seems the same

~

I’ve seen all these walls

doors

and window

from both sides

fade

into the past

rise

in front of me

~

our road

is laid

in a circle

and if you look good

you can see the signs

once made

by you

Day 1688, open your.

Day's pictures, Poetry

If you see

where the light

is coming from

~

it will no longer

shine on you

05/11/2020 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, picture, poem, Poetry, psychology, Religion 1 Comment

Day 1685, looking up.

Day's pictures, Poetry

From certain angles

all the lines

going up

will meet

~

the question is

are we tall enough

to witness this

02/11/2020 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, picture, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 1684, they.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I can almost

read the signs

~

but for now

~

I am more interested

in the shadows

they throw

Day 1683, shine.

Day's pictures, Poetry

A light

does not shine

in the dark

Day 1682, sentimental.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I am standing here

looking over a meadow

waiting for

the summer harvest

in autumn

~

It might be

sentimental

or just patient

30/10/2020 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged autumn, life, mind, Philosophy, photography, picture, poem, Poetry, psychology, summer Leave a comment

Day 1681, landscape.

Day's pictures, Poetry

Our cultured landscape

~

with fields

square

like the mind

of a farmer

and trees

planted

by the rhythm

of the ranger

~

and the road

we take

follows the creek

that brings

water

down

over rounded

stones

laying in the silt

of forefathers

Day 1680, smooth.

Day's pictures, Poetry

It froze

after the first rain

and leaves fell

~

the next morning sun

broke the ice

and we drifted

apart

~

the distance

warmed

and the rough edges

melted

~

soon

this all

is one again

Day 1679, far apart.

Day's pictures, Poetry

The world speeds by

seen through the left window

of my car

~

at a glance

I see a handful

of black sheep

grazing

far apart

~

where I come from

the sheep mostly

stick together

~

I guess these black sheep

don’t

Day 1678, distorted.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I like to look

at the reflection

of a blue sky

in one of the large structures

blocking

my horizon

~

the reflection adds

a much needed

distortion

of what I wish

to see

Day 1677, from nowhere.

Day's pictures, Poetry

I feel an urge

to eat

it comes

from nowhere

I didn’t decide

it

~

it’s just like these words

I write here

25/10/2020 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, picture, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 1674, playing.

Day's pictures, Poetry

The urge

to pull

on the first words

dangling

in your mind

~

when asked

for an opinion

~

curious

for what will happen

you give

in

and the rest

arrives

~

you pulled

like the cat

with seven lives

22/10/2020 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, picture, poem, Poetry, psychology 2 Comments

Day 1672, ice.

Day's pictures, Poetry

The flowers

turned white

into ice

now I see

that the clock

moved the time

ahead

and away

from…
