Dikter

 


Jag tycker mycket om att läsa dikter och tänkvärda ord. Här har jag valt ut några av mina absoluta favoriter.


 

Reincarnation

I will come back...

One day

One morning

I will come back

In the smoke of the chimney

Of the ship

In the wings of a seagull

In the words of a song

In the chords of a melody

In the vibrations of a guitar

I will come back

In the petals of a flower

In a look of a child

I will be in everything

In all that I deeply loved

I will be in you

In the farewells of the evening

In the arrival of spring

To teach you

To love again

Remembering promises

Revealing dreams

That you never dreamed

Afraid to love me

You refused the poem

That you are

You Exchanged the truth

For the silent crying

Of so many nights

Just to keep from saying

I love you

(João Carlos Abreu)

 

"We are each of us angels, with only one wing,

and we can only fly, by embracing each other."

(Luciano de Crescenzo)

 

Thinking of you

I want to stay always awake

So I can think of you

But then I want to sleep

So I can dream of you

I was counting hours

Until I could see you

Yesterday I counted minutes

I was longing much for you

Now counting seconds til tomorrow

It is so hard without you

If you are not with me tomorrow

I can´t function without you

Every thought and thing it seems to reveal

The feeling which is between me and you

("Wolfman")

 

Änglar är ljuva och sura och kvicka, våta och torra, hårda och mjuka, vassa och vänliga. De kan flyga, javisst, men bara då vi släpper loss vår fantasi.

(F Forrester Church)

 

Snigelns visa

Sol! Sol! skönt

lys, lys, ljus,

trög väg på grus,

se gräs grönt,

här mycket lätt

äta sig mätt.

 

Här inte brått

bortkrypa vill,

här ligga still, mums, mums, gott.

 

Hum, hör dån,

hum varifrån

är svårt hot?

Stor svart fot,

bäst krypa in

i hyddan sin.

(Gustav Fröding)
