~some streets of thought from abroad~

dear friend ~

i am here in this sunstreaming place and felt like writing and sending the words out into space after spending some hours chasing miles in a race against me myself and i, so enjoy the lines while my thoughts pass by and come with me on this ride with that black bike

yes i'm soaring... guess the bike ride we did the day before yesterday was the most poetic of my life... 6 hours on a bike, while rhymes were rising at the horizon. so in tune. and so different, the rides here. so tiring and inspiring

really, i didn't expect all this, especially as i'm not here for the first time, and actually i was a bit afraid that after the impact of India, coming here to this place i've just been last year would be boring, but really it is perfect timing.
i am discovering new ways, new places, new sights every day, things that had been there before, but i have never seen them, the same place, a different journey, the same street, different thoughts, the same camera, different pictures. here is one i took in a street cafe in Pollensa at siesta time:

you could almost feel the shade having a daydream there, feeling fine, and me racing by on my bike of steel, on this ride that triggered my rhyming wheel, cause it was on the bike that i put all this lines together, left marks in the sky with my mind's feather, and typed it into the computer in the quiet of the night, while the island's stars shone down with their endless light

~~~~soul smiles and road miles~~~

from Do

the one who's in the flow
even so
she doesn't know
where the roads will go
but who follows the glow
of the rhymes that grow
along her way
through the day

i hope all is well with you
may your travel wishes soon come true
cause it's so good to get away
and get in the rhythm of an abroad day
that soothes your mind
and lets you find
balance in waves
in this other place
.

next: one could drown in it
