Mas La Plana, Santa Maria d'Oló (Barcelona, Spain), February 2024 I am keeping my life, the green which always comes back after the golden-brown of August. I keep my nerves, the restlessness which never seems to stop and pushes me forward. I keep this heat inviting disconnection, but always failing. I keep my life, each and everyone who comes and goes: the important ones are always here.  

Mas La Plana, Santa Maria d'Oló (Barcelona, Spain), July 2024 Feeling useless, being able to help, though. Feeling somehow down, energy bursting at the seams, though. A living contradiction, just being myself, though, over and over again.

Koblenz (Germany), October 2016 Whenever I run out of verses, I know that a bright light will be a beacon for lost words. I have not finished off my verses, they have just found their way back to the sheltering shadows of the forest. Ink still flows on and on from my soul to paper, filling page after page. No end in sight yet for my attempts to leave a little bit of beauty wherever life takes me through.

Mission, San Juan de Capistrano (California, USA), November 2018 A garden between home and road, a street with the name of a teacher. A high school with a splash of philosophy, a school afterwards with a new language. An apartment on the riverside, a small house on a lucky island. A dark studio in the big city, a big one in a happy town, a smaller one later on, another one. A place shared with family, exile, new place in historical setting. Back to the city with another language, new place, new family, then a second exile. A house on the beach, lonely, seeking, at last, my new home in the mountains. Already sixty years young, sixty years lived, feared, dreamt of. Sixty years to spread my wings, sixty memories which finally stopped being a burden, they are energy.

Puçoñ (València, Spain), October 2023 The shortest night, the longest day in the year: Cleansing water and fire. There I leave behind memories of lived intensity, recollections threatening to burden, to slow me down. At the same time, I accept the challenge of shining bright, of being energy, of flowing through life while still being an anchor.

Altura (Castellón, Spain), June 2024 Relieved Unburdened Free Bright Happy Alive!

València (Spain), June 2024 Light at the end of Spring, surrealistic mosaic of colors dancing, cavorting, rioting, creating unimaginable spaces. Colorful light, color of life, life without a pause, realistic mosaic, endless harmony.
