#37 again - 2010 - shall my life...

shall my life
be told
and retold?

like Kalev
and Kalevipoeg

shall I be an inspiration
a starting place
for some

or maybe at least some
character helping him on his tasks

#37 - 2010 - so I stand...

So I stand waiting
for the ferry to Helsinki
and the rest of my life
no promises this time about
when coming back
but promises that I will
and hopes that others will visit
I wait and try to write
the perfect poem for Estonia
but o well...


will wait for next time

#13 revisited - you make your own...

You make your own luck
maybe fashion it
out of some haphazard plan
like some crazy pattern in a rock

You make your own luck
maybe keeping that promise
and it coming back
to pay you two fold

You make your own luck
even if thirteen is all around:

the thirteenth stop,

13 on the book

on the Tallinaa Leivake

and on the row of the Plane

embrace your luck and it will embrace you
