Time for poetry

I have looked in my private folder and read through what I wrote many years ago. I love them all, because they are my breathtakes from before. I thought it would be easy to choose the first one for you, but it´s not. I have decided to let you read from the beginning, even if it means it will take some time until I get to the poems that perhaps will ease the pain in a sad persons soul.
At the age of 18, that was 1987, 9th of december, I wrote one of the first poems I will let you see. I began to write in hexameter:
And again, I am sorry but they are all in swedish:

" En ensam fågel hörs, på kala trädekvist.
På äng en fjärils lek, är ju helt klart och visst.
Ett vackert glitter ges, från droppar i vår bäck
Och ljud av porlet är, en sång så fin och tjäck.
Natur nu kläds i guld, av vacker solnedgång.
Piga på backen står, och kallar korna in.
En ensam vandrare, sitt steg på grusig gång,
ber vackert henne om: -vill du nu bliva min"

Tomorrow a poem I wrote 1988, in August.

Have any of you written poems? I did when I was a teenager. Lots of sorrow, lonelyness, but also joy and happiness. Many times it wasn´t enough just to wright a plain poem. I built in secret messages and poems inside the poem. Did you???
I am far away from the time when I was a labil young man, but things are shaking my identity nowadays, and I recall some of the feelings I had back then.
Can a sad poem be a comfort to a person in vain? Perhaps, you get a new perspective and see that you´re not an alien. Others have felt sadness and come out from there. I will share some of my poems with you, if you want? Unfortunately they will be in swedish.

Friday, nice weather, outside and painting the fence. Our daughter at school, our son at home. I will try to barbeque tomorrow. Tell me how to turn the fire on, and hold it burning.

To not be good enough

We spent last weekend together with relatives in Sundsvall. We had a "relative-get-together" on my father-in-law´s side. It was 16 (!) years ago since last time. I was a boyfriend to Victoria back then.
We travelled by car (no aircondition, remember). I had prepared with two sets of maps for our children, so they could follow where we were, and a "traffic sign bingo". They didn´t ask many times when to be there. We made a visit to a cousin (and his family) of Victoria. We stayed two nights in a hostel and had a great weekend!
Our children have started an intensive swimmingcourse. They are both doing well. You should see them, and specially our soon five year old son! He simply doesn´t know the meaning of being afraid in the water! In a way he can be dangerous to himself. When he dives for things, he counts to three, barely fills his lungs with air and tries to reach the bottom. After a numerous tries and spitting and coughing, he smiles with the whole face when he succeeds. And then it´s time to dive with the head first, in the pool where he barely can have his head over the surface.
There are so much more to say about all this, and pictures to show you. Perhaps I have the time later, or Vic can make a new bloggentrance with pictures.


On anther blog it was shared a fantastic memory from the past. When you are in some kind of trouble/problem, and everything seems nearly impossible or very hard, it´s good to have someone that at least can light up the way for you. It´s not everytime possible to completely lift away the burden, but everyone can do something to lighten up the situation. It´s not always easy to see/understand when you are in the situation that you get help, and to be thankfull to the person for it, and it´s not easy all the time to see when a person needs help. In both ways the helper and the one in help saw all this. The wisdom in this: I see you are in problem, I help with what I can. You see your problem, and that you get help. You both are thankfull to each other, and grow strong in eachother. What I have been thinking on lately, and learned through this wisdom: When I was a child, my parents took care of me. Many times without me knowing the offering my parents had to make to help me. And now I am a parent myself, I do my best to love, comfort, help, be around, offering myself, and still many times feel to not bee good enough. I have to acknowledge my parents and wife a lot, and should show them my appreciation, so that they as well as I can grow in love.

Svinatrött

Jag har länge undrat vad alla härjar om. Jag säger bara:
- malaria
- tbc
- hiv
Lite perspektiv, tack.



Och blir det nu värsta svininfluensa-digerdöden om ett år, jag då får jag väl äta upp min hatt. Men faktiskt. Tröttsamt är det.

Hans Rosling är cool i alla fall, fast han har värsta engelskan. :-)

Valborgsmässoafton och idag


En underbar sista april-kväll..


...är vi på väg till vårgudstjänst i Huddinge kyrka.


Magnolian är så vacker...


...och doftar ljuvligt...


Rikedom.


Om du tycker det ser ut som att fackeltåget står still, så har du alldeles rätt. Men snart var vi på väg igen.


De första facklorna slängdes på brasan.

Det skymmer.


Elden tar fart.


Elden blir stor och varm.


Det var många människor i parken.


Sockervadd ska man ha.


En fin kväll...

...med älskade barnen.

Idag!
