If You Want to Survive
When the memories of youth’s sins
Knock at your old age heart
Don’t open the door.
The open-door policy doesn’t
Make the sins disappear
But paints black also
The wisdom of maturity.

I saw a little
angel at the edge of the forest.
As I approached her, I saw her crying.
Without asking, she replied:
The forest no longer responds to invitations.
Flora has left this world
because its cruelty shocked her.
Soon, Fauna will be gone, too.
They go to another planet,
where the Creator brings oxygen and water,
but not people.
Why are you crying?
Isn't that a good thing?
We Guardian Angels die
together with those we protect.
We have failed in our mission.
Then we sat on the rock hand in hand
to wait for the end of this world.
I winked at the angel and asked:
"Is this going to take long"?
The girl couldn't be
without smiling.

My guitar sounds sad
While being without you.
It has lost a sense
Of sweet love.

Cithara meo sona triste
cum re es sine te.
Id ha perdito sensu
de amore dulce.

People,
those geniuses,
solve the problem by creating a new,
more significant problem.
In that way, the primary concern
seems insignificant.
The man is clever.
We always have a key
for the door of solutions.

When I’m in a store with low prices
I buy expensive coffee,
And when I’m in a costly store
I buy cheap coffee.

Lyrics of the song:
A Peaceful Christmas
I wish the whole world
A Peaceful Christmastime,
And I hope love occupies
Our hearts forever.
Look at the stars.
They are to love.
Look at the stars.
They are for us

The theme of this Christmas greeting is both inner and outer peace. Because of this, the song tells about the greatness of the universe and our responsibility to be constructive. My Arabic-language card supports stability, especially in Palestine. I would also have made a card in Hebrew where the Jews would celebrate Christmas.
On a peaceful Christmas, I want to thank all my readers and wish you a peaceful Christmas and success for 2024.
Why are they all over again selling postcards of their own world?
I have written the words to the tune of the Finnish folk song "Niin minä neitonen sinulle laulan kuin omalle kullalleni." The song's name is impossible to translate literally, but it means, "I am singing to you, my young one (maiden), like you were my darling."
Verse 01
I'm singing from the bottom of my heart to make the world a peaceful heaven. Please, Mother Earth, release your angels from the woods we've fully disregarded.
Verse 02
Let your supernatural creatures tell us there is one unbiased God. He gives every living being a spirit and redeems it when the time's up.
Verse 03
Please give me a sign that it is the worst of sins to steal the life of a child so that I have the strength to defend God's gift whatever books are telling.
Please enlarge the music sheet by clicking.
Please forward this postcard to support a ceasefire in the Middle East
I'm sad,
because people near me
don't care about
what is happening
in Palestine.

Recently, I have encountered other people besides myself who ask themselves if the lack of commonality is my fault. I and others have wondered if I would be less alone elsewhere. In this turmoil, my friend's words have come to mind that when a person is at peace with himself, he is at home, even in a rat hole. According to him, the change for the better starts with rewarding yourself. I am a traveler on this road until the end, like each of us. Blaming ourselves or others does not help us. Rolling my thoughts led me to write the following poem.
We are born
alone
And we will die
Alone.
It's nobody's fault,
It is the world
Diverges from
Itself.

Viime aikoina olen kohdannut itseni lisäksi muita ihmisiä, jotka kysyvät itseltään, onko yhteisyyden puute minun vikani. Niin minä kuin muutkin ovat miettineet sitä, olisinko jossain muualla vähemmän yksin. Tässä myllerryksessä mieleeni on tullut ystäväni sanat, että kun ihminen on sinut itsensä kanssa, hän on kotonaan, vaikka rotankolossa. Hänen mukaansa muutos parempaan alkaa itsensä palkitsemisesta. Olen tämän tien kulkija loppuun asti niin kuin jokainen meistä. Syyllisen hakeminen meistä itsestämme tai muista ei meitä auta. Ajatuksien pyöritteleminen sai minut kirjoittamaan seuraavan runon.
Me synnymme yksin
ja me kuolemme yksin.
Se ei ole kenenkään vika.
Se on maailma,
joka erkanee
itsestään.
