Trying to fasten your snowboots while being too lazy to take of your mittens,
and assisted by two kittens!

narwal

Strange fish, this narwal is!
It's not a fish, it's a whale!
It's not a horn, 
it's not the ocean's unicorn!
It's a tusk, a sort of sensor
It's a tooth 
and it's not to fight, 
so let's brush it shiny white!
 

Magical

When your friendship is special 
then your umbrella is magical
and your connection eternal

Monster story

Starring the monsters from this scary nonsense poem, but I made my own version :)))
She came, saw and conquered in her own sweet way...

Jabberwocky By Lewis carroll

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

      Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:

All mimsy were the borogoves,

      And the mome raths outgrabe.

“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!

      The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!

Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun

      The frumious Bandersnatch!”

He took his vorpal sword in hand;

      Long time the manxome foe he sought—

So rested he by the Tumtum tree

      And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,

      The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,

Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,

      And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through

      The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!

He left it dead, and with its head

      He went galumphing back.

“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?

      Come to my arms, my beamish boy!

O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”

      He chortled in his joy.

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

      Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:

All mimsy were the borogoves,

      And the mome raths outgrabe.

and the moon wants to grab you
just lie on your horse
and rely on your dog to protect you

bumble bee

End of summer, work is done
buzzing softly in the sun
Mr Bumble and Mrs Bee
feeling happy, feeling free
nectar beer and honey tea
a perfect holiday at the sea

IF green

It's so easy being green!

 

IF giant

It's an amazing experience
to become special friends
with a gentle giant
and feel his warm breath 
in your hand 

 

IF transformation

Even a wall flower 
can transform 
into something spectaculair. 
It all depends on the light,
on getting space and air,
on finding the power 
to perform. 

IF house

A house with a big door
is like a sailor with a big boat,
is like a man with a big heart:
It can harbour many creatures,
small, tall, all.

As for me, 
I am a special case,
I have a special place:
I cling to his left toe
so he won't forget 
the sea 

















one picture is too small and the other too big, 
but maybe it's nice to see some details...

And then you loose...

 

IF mythology

My Pegasus with Muse, free interpretation of the painting by Odilon Redon, and tribute to the artist!
(Pegasus was the winged horse born from the love of Poseidon and Medusa. 
He reached the mountain Olympus. He stamped his hoof 
and made a fountain that gives inspiration to poets and muses)

IF blue

Blue moon and blue bird found each other on a semi 'Delfts blue' plate

 

IF number 5

5 trees make no forest
but for me it's the world.

Number 1 I call The Hand,
every morning he waves hi!

Number 2 is Fork,
he is two trees in one.

Number 3 is Thin and Tall,
reaching for the sky.

Number 4 is Mister Beauty,
stout and proud,
exactly as a tree should be. 

Number 5 is Sprout,
he is a specialty, 
my windowsilly baby tree.
 

IF guitar

When nightingale dad
put his children to bed
he plays the guitar
and makes a nice choir
with his friend, little star
they sing a lullaby
about sweet applepie
and flying sky high
there is romance and dance
but owl wants Silence!

Solo palabras - Just words

Farewell-bird is crying. 

'Farewell', he sobs.

'With that word 
I always bring tears. 

To say goodbye 

and break up, 

it gives a big knot of pain 

in your tummy.'

Never more-bird 

comes floating in.

'What I have to say, 

is worse: Never more. 

I never come back,

never again.'

He swallows
and says in a harsh voice: 

'Never more 

is a terrible thing. 

It’s like a lump that sticks 

in your throat.'

'The word Regret
is far worse',
shrieks Regret-bird. 

'When you regret something,
you wish you
had acted differently, 

but you can not
alter this anymore. 

Regrets bash and clash
inside your head.'

When darkness falls 

they hear someone 

sing a sad song. 

It is the Missing-bird. 

'To miss

is the worst word. 

When you miss, 

you don’t feel your tummy, 

your throat or your head. 

You don’t feel anything. 

Just emptiness.'

'Dear friends, 

your words are just words',

says Love-bird. 

'All that sadness 
is caused by me, 

by Love.  

Without love, 

it doesn’t hurt 

when someone leaves. 

You just say 'Bye bye'.

But if you love, 

then parting is painful.

In your tummy, 

in your throat 

and your head, 

but most of all 

there is pain in your heart.'
