IF-power

Big dog trembling             

makes me strong,

gives me power

to stay calm

and to look 

the growling monster

in the eye.

Little dog is not frightened 

by a bit of bad weather.

IF-robot (and extra)

 

Pea patch warfare: 
If you want to eat cabbage, 
you have to kill. 
If you decide to kill, 
you have to go 
in robot mode. 
No looking them in the eye,
no thinking of fragile, fluttering butterflies,
but be a mean machine!
Or... 
eat spinach 
and beets 
and spinach beet! 




Extra: baby Roboto (see: http://thepenmover.blogspot.com )

IF-travel

Ever since I was a little witch
I had this big big wish:
To have a horse, to hold,
to stroke and kiss,
to sniff his sweet warm fur.
To ride! To travel, world and wide.
In my dreams, both day and night,
on dewy paths, through summer waves 
and rusty leaves, to feel the icy breeze.
A horse to carry me and me alone,
to ride a horse and to feel free. 

destruction

it wasn't the sweet guard
he watched out
the danger came from within
as often
hidden in the heart

IF-surveillance

a late IF-sweet

"Nibble nibble like a mouse,
who is eating from my house?"
This is a scene from a famous Grimm story
about a badbad witch,
who lures children into her house of candy...

IF-worn

If my friend Roy had worn his mosquito hat, he would have had a nice, non-itchy sunday!

IF-tension

When the Minnaloushe moon
shines through the window
of my bedroom
the cats say hello!
And soon
the tension rises.
They say miow miow!
let's catch some mice!

IF-wild

A word about Wild

This was my inspiration:

This is the bedroom of Max:

In his imagination trees are growing from the bedpoles till he is in a big forest 

and free to go where ever he wants to. He sails to the island where the Wild Things are:

In my version I have my own cast: the doggies and my two friends Rob & Ros. 

Rob has  recently painted a toad, so his Wild Thing is toadlike. 

Ros made birds from textile, so she ride on a Wild Bird Thing.

IF eye glasses

I have these magical hope & fantasy eye glasses. When I stare at the black soil in my garden, 
I see the jungle that can sprout. 

IF talent & yesterday

My sister in law is a very talented cleaning queen. She came to help me with the house.

So yesterday it was all smudgymudgy, now it is shinyfiny

IF whisper

trying to ignore the dog whispering

be it with tailsor with eyes

IF wool

I thought about wool
and being a sheep
warm and cosy,
but then in the summer 
the wool is hot, 
and the sheep needs 
to be shaved. So...






I thought about shaving and what a time consuming business it is

I want a nice furry pelt that's good winter and summer! so I knitted my dog a nice woolen sweater 

and I took his beautiful coat

but that scared my little one

so back to the shave...

IF storm

              sometimes, when sleep is supposed to be, night storms in my head
