Blizzard (2)

The blizzard at midnight has brought a blanket of snow covering a neighborhood thriving with playful children.

Blizzard (1)

Snow wafts along plain
Howling but also silent
Self-confidence screams

Chances

If I had a little bird,
I'd definitely set it free,
But if another chance was given,
I'd keep it near- me.

Is there always another chance?
no-the answer's simple
But if always another chance:
The best won't be done.

If I had a little bird,
Maybe I'd keep it near,
But if I dare buy it a cage,
I'll eventually shed a tear.

Fire

Luminous flames consume the mind ...
Flowing strips of light feed
All that is left
Here
And there

Now nothing ...

Both here and there.

Beriot and "Up"

I started playing a piece by Beriot on my violin. To my amazement I realized that part of it was in the movie "UP".
