Haiku feber....

HAIKU feber....
Så er haiku feberen nådd ut på Molværsvegen.
Noen liker kryssord, noen Sudeko, men jeg ble bitt av Haiku.
Små"dikt"om du vil kalle det? Men her skal ordene bare sette deg i stemning; fremkalle billeder, lyder, lukter og minner, som du kan kjenne igjen.
Haiku, som du sikkert vet er en Japansk kunstform som har forskjellige regler.
Den godkjente Engelsk-Japanske varianten har ganske frie tøyler, og er ikke bundet opp i den gammle Japanske 5-7-5 rytmen... Jeg foretrekker å skrive på engelsk. Du kan få en smakebit med å trykke (her) og bli overført til egen blogg for mine små forsøk....( ikke le høyt)

Folke sang fra Japan

"Once a Dancer always a Dancer"

There was a time I was a ballet dancer ( 1966 to 1976) in Oslo. Educated at The Norwegian Opera Balletschool! I loved to dance and was working at diffrent Theaters in Oslo and Stockolm!
My lat performance was infact in Icland, in the Art Galley of Tjarvalstadir. It was The Nordic Music Festival in Reykjavik 1976. The Toronto orcestra of modern music played to music of Olav Anton Thommasen, and I performed a solo part to the " Secret Gospel" of the alread emtioned composer!
Why did I stop dancing? Well, thats a long story.
