Every SWF-picture published here is shot with my trusty Google Pixel 4a smartphone and unedited, unless stated otherwise.
It's been a while (nine years?) and I miss the Skywatch community. In the meantime I started weekly posting a short story or a poem. "So why not do both?" I asked myself. And here I am.
How 're all you lovelies doing in your parts of the world?
==========================================
At the end of 2023 it was my privelege to work and live in Belfast, Northern Ireland for some two months. Here are some shots I took while there:
Belfast City Hall
View from my room at the guesthouse were I stayed
No, not the entrance to a cemetary but to a park
Downtown Belfast there's a mall. In it a high viewpoint
On one of my days off I visited Crumlin Road Goal, the prison that housed people for the 'crime' of being poor and shouting 'away with the king!' 'n stuff. You know, in ye' ole' days. So up until 1996. They also house Abba parties. With live band.
Commonly known as Belfast Cathedral, this beautiful church is actually called
The Cathedral Church of St. Anne
On another day off, I visited Dublin. And saw this cool canal around sunset
It's hard to resist a visit to the Titanic Museum when in Belfast. So I didn't. Resist, that is.
Did you know the famous sunken ship Titanic was build in Belfast?
And now a bit of poetry, based on thin walls and my neighbour practising the piano:
====================================
Que sera sera (a #poem)
Ah, the sounds of the city!
A distant sirene wails
squabbling lovebirds
and a neighbour
practicing the piano
for months and hours on end.
Two songs.
Starting
with the two fingers system
and slowly, ever so slowly,
progressing chords
Dark thoughts arise
and make way for work
until it's time again
for a Blue Moon.
Que sera sera
