# 2 baby’s first word
mam mam ~
her mouth full
of mashed potatoes
# 3 dragonfly (haiga)
noon sun
I rest in the shade
of a dragonfly
# 4 green
the first candle
in the advent wreath
is hope still green?
# 5 ornaments
golden glitter
a fallen angel needs
a new thread
# 6 lipstick
lipstick
on his white collar ~
icy night
# 7 jungle cat
biting wind
urban jungle cats fight
in the backyard
# 8 mirror image
stolen glances
in the shop windows ~
another diet
# 9 shark
reef shark . .
I keep staring
at his scar
10+11 twin wishes and mountains
from the land
of no mountains
peace and love
# 12 teeth
first snow
in a small glass of milk
two front teeth
a little red hat
# 15 seeking solace (haiga)
gun shots in the deep darkness we move a little closer
# 16 time
splintered glass they say time will heal
# 17 all I want
peace around the table their smiling faces
# 18 motor bike
soft curves ~
I lean against
his leather back
# 19 framed
framed for grandma
on Santa’s lap a child
with a weapon
# 20 I hear a mouse
18 million kr.
for a new fauna bridge. . .
I hear a mouse laugh
# 21 one line
this yearning even the old poplar wears light
Happy Solstice ;-)
#22 wrap it up
clove and cardamom . . .
Christmas cookies wrapped up
in cellophane
# 23 loud
Silent Night ~
my little boy
on his trumpet
# 24 once a day
a b c d e . :.
on my tongue
a yellow pill
# 25 company has arrived
winter sun
in every corner of the house
laughter
# 26 coffe or coffe beans
from Ecuador
to my coffee grinder
how many hands
# 27 write about a frog without using the word
an extra sip
of the French white wine. . .
those legs on my plate
# 28 bubbles
evening mist on my glasses former soap bubbles
# 29 tiger blue
back and forth
along the fence
tiger blue(s)
# 30 pencil
1+1= 2 teeth marks in her yellow pencil
# 31 marble
a new year's bath
for the white marble Tara ~
may you all shine
Happy New Year and thank you so much for your poetry and company through 2012
