Poetry

Day 3464, I see.

Daily picture, Poetry
I see what you do

but do you inhale
or vent

your thoughts

19/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3463, who is.

Daily picture, Poetry
We don’t see you
so we are not to blame
for you demise

Who is?

18/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3462, is there.

Daily picture, Poetry
Am I caught
in a net
or falling

is there a difference

17/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3461, don’t just open a door.

Daily picture, Poetry
For some a door 
is just a door

for others
the poetic type
a door is a portal

a portal
to another inside

life can be what it is
or what you fantasize
with other words
art

Day 3460, you see.

Daily picture, Poetry
My three neighbors live
in the same house as I do

the only difference
is what you see in the window

Day 3459, behind.

Daily picture, Poetry
I have something with doors
they all hide secrets
a world you don’t know


and to be honest
you never will know
what is behind most of the doors
you meet


so make most of the ones
you do open

14/09/202515/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged doors, life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3457, think.

Daily picture, Poetry
Should you believe your eyes
when you know they are wrong

that’s a point
more common than you know

12/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3456, I like my view.

Daily picture, Poetry
I like my view black and white
just because the world is so grey
where the right answers disappear

11/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3455, random thoughts.

Daily picture, Poetry
I see abstract trees
in the city I walk
they don’t represent
but an idea

is nature not always a concept
a want
even while walking in it
do we not want

something of it

even if it is just
peace and quiet


can we really be in nature
even though we are
nature

10/09/202511/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, nature, Philosophy, photography, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3454, number one.

Daily picture, Poetry
I don’t know what you expect 
from number one
but is this it

09/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3453, why.

Daily picture, Poetry
You frame your closed life 
like a painting turned around
in its frame
why

08/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3452, necessarily.

Daily picture, Poetry
Some places look attempting
but not necessarily
by how they look

07/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3450, stare.

Daily picture, Poetry
I am in a corner
in a hallI I don’t know
not because I was sent
or went
myself

What I now see in parts
is no longer straight
but I see it all
captured in my sphere
a long stare


05/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3448, calm.

Daily picture, Poetry
Isolated
life seems calm
slightly stained
not so colorful


03/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3446, that brings.

Daily picture, Poetry
I love walking on bridges
It's not because of the other side
but the structure that brings me there

01/09/2025 Christiaan van Gaal Tagged life, mind, Philosophy, photography, pictures, poem, Poetry, psychology Leave a comment

Day 3443, just.

Daily picture, Poetry
I see a chair behind the window looking at me
I wonder if the somewhat symmetry I see
is known to it

just an observation
in passing
