That House

Gardenday
Oh yesterday!
It was a gardenday at Noaks kindergarden.
Parents, children
and the lovely personel
where there
cleaning the garden.
Things you do in a garden in spring.

We met at ten.
A little café opened up
after two hours of work
in the shade of the trees
with goddies made by parents.

Children were playing.
Parents were talking with eachother.
It was souch a wonderful place to be at.

My man and another man
made a little orchestra
performing their own children-songs...


A walk
And today
we decided to take a Sundaywalk
in the surroundings of Noaks kindergarden.

First around the lake.
Then up some streets very close by.
Walked up a hill.
Hundred years old wooden houses
with charm and little towers
in blooming gardens.

That house
On a sign at a gate
I recognized the names
of one of the familes
we had met yesterday.
I could hear them
working in their garden
so I couldn´t help myself
but had to say HI.

Helenas smile was
as warm as yesterday
and she asked us in.
Into their paradize.
And into her house.

Oh that house!
You should have seen that house.
Reflecting a happy life.
Very untidy
but we both agreed on that
messy was OK
as long as you´re surrounded
by a mess of beautiful things.
Never thought of that.
But true!
Haven´t seen souch a beautiful house
since I can´t remember when.

Palegreen wallpaper with
floral pattern in gold.
Her paintings.
Space, light, wit and personality.

Back outside Helena said to Noak
that she expected him to come play
in their garden
many, many times...
