My Poetry 

and some I did not write

           (  mine are translated into english)  

 

 

 

 

Ljus

 

Det grå ljuset

smyger sig in

i alla vrår

Slingrar sig

runt tankar

och uttryck

Glättiga tulpaner

som motvikt mot gråheten

för oss närmare

längtans värme

och spirande vår

Light

 

The grey light

sneaks into every corner

Winding around

thoughts and expressions

Glowing tulips

balancing opposite to greyishness

Brings us closer

to heat of desire

and budding spring

Traveller

 

Miles later

the town far behind

I can start breathing.

Alone

in midlife

embrassed by beginning

comfort is spreding

into my whole being.

It is wonderful obviousity

and clear affinity.

The language without words

understandible for everyone

slowly penetrates

my everyday-mask.

What is artifishial

can be removed

without  a breakdown

of the creation.

The scent of nature

in my lungs

and its spirit

in my hart.

The rose

 

And so

you gave me

the red rose of love.

Sweetsmelling

intoxicating

not like another.

I want to carry it

close to my hart

whithout thorns

hurting me.

Colour filles me

with joy

and pleasure

I am a child

of coolours

knowing how to give

....and recieve

The colours of love

are red and purple.

And   poems by Rumi :

                        

 

Oh lovers

Where are you going?

Who are you looking for?

Your Beloved is right here.

She lives in your own neighborhood.

Her face is veiled.

She hides behind screens

calling for you

while you search and lose yourself

in the wilderness and desert.

Cease looking for flowers!

There blooms a garden in your own home.

While you look for trinkets

the treasure house awaits you in your own being.

There is no suffering.

God is here.

 

 

 

 

 

I am life itself

You have been a prisoner

of a little pond

I am the ocean

and its turbulent flood

Come merge with me

leave this world of ignorance

Be with me

I will open

the gate to your love
