More Than Ever

What does that mean,
I’m getting old
What does that mean,
how should I feel about it?
I can find the morning sky within me
and spring storms –more than ever

Too Quickly

Feeling too safe, too quickly
Forgetting the ones we lost
What’s going to be the price I wonder
Restarting life at all costs

I watched my husband texting in snail speed -due to the one-finger-search-system he uses on any keyboard- and so I interfered. Helpful, as only loving spouses can be, I showed him the little microphone on his phone, and asked him to use it.

‘How do you want your eggs?’ the waitress asked.

It was our weekly routine. She asked, and I didn’t know what to say.

An unusual Loan

“I was thinking about taking out a loan, please,” I mumbled and felt a little embarrassed. I wouldn’t be in this situation if I would have planned better.

Object or objecting?

Today’s one-word prompt is OBJECT. Gosh I don’t like the new one-word prompts, they make me feel like a dog. They throw me a bone, instead of giving me a complete meal and I have to make the best out of it. Filling but not satisfying. 

Lets’ learn English

I was a great student, loved school and was a fast learner. Went to the the highest school the Gymnasium, had good grades 1-2 (A-B) no drama at all…until I decided to learn English as well. I mastered Latin and Old Greek, spoke German and Italian from an early age on. English would be just a walk in the park, such a simple language…I had been told.
