* new-born star *

*

This sunday-morning

the world is calm and

finally all that has happened

last week has found a place

in my heart and soul
*

I always need quiet time

to think things over and

write it down .

*

When I see the words on the paper

as they came to me

it is as if the story tells itselfs

from deep inside .

*

By writing the words get meaning

and the meaning finds the words

*

I looked forward to see my son as a father

for the first time .

Thinking about that moment

it was like in the movies

you now ....slow-motion ......with all the details ..

I would see everything and hear everything

and be in that precious moment

to never forget

*

Well I can tell you

the only similarity with a movie-experience

is

I can look it all over in my mind

trying to see more and more details

like when you see a movie over and over

*

And what I had been looking forward

.........to see........

already happened of course

before we were there

when his little girl came into the world .

I already was and still am his mother

But now I am the mother of him-as-a-father.

He made me a grandmother .

*

Little Eva is born in the middle of the night .

When we were driving to the hospital

in the middle of the night

it seemed like the world was uninhabitated

No-one on the highway ..........

*

We were the only ones on our way

to meet little Eva .

*

Near the hospital all was deserted ..........

and the night was wrapped around us .

for the new story of the new-born star .

*

She is so beautiful

were the first words of her father.

*

and

she

is
