Gnome Histrionic, the fabulist daydreamer I was in the human world, said the undersized gnome, you'lll never guess who I met! The gnome in front of him looked doubtfully. The miniature sitting was known for his drivel. The entire forest had known for a long time that he was talking nonsense, made up stories on the spot./Nevertheless, the forest dwellers kept their ears open and their breath. Who, the mushroom man liked to know. He had pulled himself away from the fungal…
Heaven and Hell, fantasy or reality? Only a human is capable to create his own heaven and hell. I am in heaven_, sang Fred Astaire, being in seventh heaven, these are expressions one makes when s/he feels happy or lucky. Whoever says this has not been to heaven and therefore cannot know what that place looks like. https://youtu.be/zZHtF2T7sEU?feature=shared **Does heaven exist?** If so, I don't want to go there. When I hear certain people who are convinced that they are…
Board games *Board games, do people still play them? It's a game you play on a board _not_ online that's the whole idea of it. We no longer play board games, we might once it's December 5th.* *At a certain point, it's over. It's something from my childhood and as my children were very young we did. Today all they do is wake up early, travel to school, arrive back home, do homework and back to bed. Even weekends are filled with home(school) work. I wonder what they do at…
Breakfast with... *We could host a contest with 'Breakfast with..." not that I have breakfast. I drink, work and later on I might eat and if not it will be between 3 and 6 pm. My first and most likely last meal of the day.* *Btw This morning I had an apple. The children seem to avoid them because they are tasteless. The youngest said the seeds in her apple already sprouted.* Good morning dear friend! Time flies and we are still around even though you work behind the screens.…
Art Explained by a Writer - Eclipse of the Sun *Even a big man needs a big brother to tell him how to handle it.* **The rich man stroked his fat belly** with satisfaction. He'd just had an extensive dinner. It was a wonder the cook hadn't put him on a spit since his appearance had a lot in common with the pig he had just eaten. He burped contentedly and took some more sips of wine. The most important thing was yet to come. Gentlemen, democracy is at stake. You of all know…
The Abandoned Lab Not a living soul had entered the domain of the once famous scientist. No one back then seemed to remember what had happened. The famous scientist was gone from one day to the next. Some said they'd heard a van in the middle of the night driving away, others claimed he was shot or kidnapped because he found the antidote to fight the created virus set free from his lab. Was it quilt that had made him leave and made the people in the wide area guess and…
The Bread Farm Listen, we can't deal with all those people you know that. We have them where we want them, you know how it worked in the past this will one hundred per cent work again. You know everyone wants to be part of the future, goes for a better life and adores the promising land. We can't keep those container homes and complaining, lazy types here forever. You just like me know it's prevalence of failure to continue. This is the last station. Develop it, do as told.…
Left On The Planet There was a big bang and that was it. Nothing more, nothing less. It was as if the light had been switched on and off within two seconds. As she opened her eyes she lay on her back in front of a barn. The sky looked green, as green as grass and she wondered. She blinked with her eyes, closed them and counted till then. There it was the blue sky, everything was back to normal. Anyone in, helloooo? She knocked at the door, peeped through the letterbox and…
A Blue Sun You got the blues too? Blauw blauw blauw blauw, zeg je dat woord vaak genoeg achterelkaar dan klinkt het al snel raar, blauw, blauw, blauw, blauw... **Een blauwtje lopen** is niet fijn en ook blauwe plekken zijn dat niet. Ik ken niemand wiens lievelingskleur blauw is. De mijne is dat alvast niet. De lucht is niet blauw, water is dat ook niet maar de meest gebruikte kleur inkt in een pen is wel blauw. Drukinkt daarintegen is zwart. **De Blauwe Zon** is voor…
The House ☆・・・★・・・・・★・・・☆ I hate I lost you but it happened You should know I left but A part of me stayed behind Between the walls Underneath the roof In the basement The attic The vestibule The five stairs I ran up Back down Hiding in each corner I know you Thank you for keeping me Safe I hope to meet you again In the new age 21-5-2024 Samsung A10 - black and white
It's Gold Everything that glitters and catches my attention is valuable to me, said the magpie, grabbing a quick grain along the way. Only man thinks that gold makes you happy. I know better. The nest was solid but richly filled with everything that glittered and glittered. The magpie was gilded with every little sparkly thing he found. From beads to pearls, keys, fireplace inserts, hooks and eyes, plastic sunglasses to a brightly colored piece of glass. The magpie flew back…
There's Light Their helicopter cruised the air. Look dear, she cheered, that is the perfect island. Out of the window, all he saw was a bunch of rocks, the left cliffs of Dover. Honeybee, can't you see this isn't the place where we can land? He hoped she would believe what he'd just made up. She did not. She started at him with those eyes that could shoot fire any minute. Land, she yelled. Her command was deafening. Put the Lady down, I've had enough of the yacht, sailing,…
Freezer Fridge or trunk? The choice is easily made we don't need any of them. Both will only cost money, it's a crime to clean them and the soon smelly expensive equipment will be hated. It might come at hand, he suggested while his eye fell on a brand he never heard of before. No idea if it's good but look at all the luxury it shows. With the door in his hand, he looked at the luxury inside. Room for eggs, cheese, a water container, fruits, vegetables, meat. Even your juice…
Home Alone 🤯 I set the alarm with the intention to visit the market. Yesterday it sounded like a good plan. This morning I felt too tired. A plus is the weather is not too good. My son tried to call me last night, before midnight (I switch off my phone if in bed) and texted me they arrived somewhere in Italy, had to unpack the vans, repack and get out at 3 am. Long days, no fun. The tent was warm and he could hardly breathe the tent mates kept talking. What's the point of…
Pen or Sword? What to write about sword... **A double-edged sword** seems hard to handle, I mean seriously how to play safe if it cuts on both ends or sides? **Fall on your sword** has a lot in common with saying: Drop dead while thinking preferable on your sword. Kind of suicide just a bit more difficult unless the sword is double-edged. **Hang up your sword** is a piece of good advice if you are invited for dinner. I guess there's a hook somewhere in sight. Weapons…
Home Alone 😁 **At 3 am we woke up** around 3:30 am he still had to wash and dry his hair, after 4 am we left. The sun came up and it was no longer dark. *Write me a letter I'm allowed to drive in your car*, I said yesterday, it took hours. Why search on the internet if you can write three lines yourself? **The eldest didn't pay me back again**, this time someone hit the rental car. I have a terrible year, the text said. True? I don't think so. Each time in trouble everyone…
