If shelter

This is the story of the poor, lonely magician who was one night sitting near the stove, burning his last dry wood, who was cold, hungry and tired, who didn't know if he wanted to try out new tricks, who doubted if there were kids that still enjoyed watching any new tricks, who wondered if winter would ever end, who didn't feel longing for spring...





























But then he heard a sound that was not made by the wind. He looked up and saw two big bunny eyes that said: Gimme shelter





























to be continued....

IF hat


The magician was lost in the storm. He wrestled in the wind, he walked in circles. Suddenly he felt the cold in his head. No hat! No bunny! Then he remembered the streets and found the exit out of the tempest. His hat was ruined, he threw it away. But Bunny he kept inside his coat, on his heart.

IF mystery

I used to drown in the mysterious depths
of your eyes
but magically, 
you made me into a mermaid
and now I play in my own private pool

Kintsugi

her tears worked as a looking glass
that made him see her soul


breaks were tenderly tied together 
knots in a forever untangible bond
sadness became strength
cracks became golden medals
wounds became wisdom

IF spin

To make a story
seems like magic
but the trick is just
spinning words together

once upon a time two little ghosts were dancing in the night...

IF soft

I walked on the beach of a far away land
my feet felt something soft in the sand
it was a piece of wood washed smooth by the sea
I bent down to pick it up
but! there were two pieces of wood!
I imagined them swimming as fish friends
happily together with shy smiles

IF outside

When in doubt
just get out
Don't have fright
of a bite
Perhaps...
it's on your side

IF-sleep









When the night is heavy,
when clouds bump into darkness,
the moon is your beaken,
your friend.
Ssst, the moonflower unfolds her petals, 
the magic flower of reflection.
Sssst, be very quiet now,
she only blossoms when you sleep.

She won the jackpot

in the jacuzzi
in the same jagged jacket!

My invention is called The Mood-Swing

There is no high without a low,
but it is good to know 
this happens to and fro.
There is no dark without a light.
Tomorrow is the day
