"Dikten
tillhör inte författaren utan den som behöver den"
(från filmen "Il postino") Jag håller med. När
man läser så speglar dikten på något sätt
det man själv känner, inte alla dikter men bra. Här
har jag tagit med några.
Vinter
Snön glimmar så vackert när solen lyser och snön har täckt allting.
Och när man tittar ut genom fönstret så ser man små, små snöflingor
falla.

Syraks Vishet
Onda
rykten
Att
genas tro vad man hör är tanklöst, och synden drabbar den felande
själv. Den som gläds åt det onda skall få sin dom, men den som avskyr
skvaller undgår ett ont. För aldrig ett rykte vidare; det förlorar
du ingenting på. Säg ingenting, det må gälla vän eller fiende, håll
saken hemlig, om detta inte är en synd. Ty den som hör dig blir på
sin vakt, och i sinom tid börjar han hata dig. Har du hört ett rykte,
så göm det till din död . Var lugn, det spränger dig inte. Dåren får
värkar av ryktet liksom den födande kvinnan av barnet. Som en pil
som har fastnat i låret är ryktet som du bär på.

Visan
Där låg jag på min bädd om natten. sökte honom som min själ har kär,
Jag sökte honom, men fann honom inte. Jag ville stå upp och gå omkring
i staden, på gatorna och på torgen. Jag sökte honom, Men fann honom
inte. Väktarna mötte mig, där de gick omkring i staden. Har ni sett
honom som min själ har kär? Knappt hade jag kommit förbi dem , så
fann jag honom som min själ har kär. Jag tog honom fatt, och jag släppte
honom inte, fören jag hade fört honom in i min fostrarinnas kammare.
Jag besvär er Jerusalems döttrar, vid gaseller och hindar på marken:
Oroa inte kärleken, stör den inte, fören den själv vill.
Letter from a friend
I just had to write to tell you how much I love you and care for you.
Yesterday I saw you walking and laughing with your friends; I hoped
that you`d soon want me to walk along with you too. So, I painted
you a sunset to close your day and whispered a cool breeze to refresh
you. I waited - you never called - I just keept on loving you. As
I watched you fall asleep last night, I wanted so much to touch you
I spilled moonlight onto your face - trickling down your cheeks as
so many tears have. You didn`t ever think of Me; I wanted so much
to comfort you. The next day I exploded a brilliant sunrise into glorious
morning for you. But you woke up late and rushed of to work - you
didn´t ever notice. My sky become cloudy and My tears were the rain.
I love you. Oh if you´d only listen I really love you. I try to say
it in the quiet of the green meadow and in the blue sky. The wind
whispers my love throughout the treetops and spills it into the vibrant
colours of all the flowers. I shout it to you in the thunder of the
great waterfalls and compose lovesongs for birds to sing for you.
I warm you with the clothing of my sunshine and perfume the air with
natures sweet scent. My love for you is deeper then any ocean and
greater then any need in your heart. If you´d only realize how I care.
My father sends his love. I want to meet him - He cares, too. Fathers
are just that that way. So, please call on Me soon. No mather how
long it takes, I will wait - because I love you. Your friend Jesus

Footprints
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach
with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each
scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonging
to him, and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of his life
flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only
one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very
lowest and saddest times in his life. This really bothered him and
he questioned the Lord about it. "Lord you said that once I decided
to follow you, you´d walk with me all the way. But I have noticed
that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only on
set of footprints. I don´t understand why when I needed you most you
would leave me" The lord replied " My son, My precious child, I love
you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried
you.
