Über mich/about me
- Rudi Pfaller
- Im Jahr 2006 verspürte ich das Verlangen kreativ zu werden, aber nicht wieder Holzspielzeug zu basteln. Ich interessierte mich dafür, was denn ein Haiku sei und begann selbst welche zu schreiben. Seither versuche ich dem Zauber dieser kürzesten aller Poesieformen auf die Spur zu kommen und entdecke immer wieder Neues. - I try it in English as well: In 2006 I had a craving for creative activity, but I didn’t want to do wooden handycrafts again. I wanted to know what a haiku is and took my first steps in writing. Since that time I try to reveal the secret about this short poetry and I always discover new things.

Thank you Devika.
ReplyDeleteCan you smell the scent of lilac in India as well?
Best wishes

What we call Indian Lilac is not known for its scent; but medicinal...we also have Persian and Mexican Lilacs (as much as i know)....which, to me has a different scent (Persian is kind of heady; Mexican is mild); but European lilac perfumes are available -- that's very sweet...haven't seen the tree yet :)

Thanks, Devika.
ReplyDeleteIn Germany we call lilac "Flieder". Here you can see the common colour:

But we also have white and light-blue "Flieder".
I'm sorry I cannot send you the scent.
Have a nice Sunday evening. Here it's about 9 am.

Fine, as always Rudi. +m
Thank you Magyar,
ReplyDeletelet's follow the scent.
Cricket> I love this sound. Crickets for me mean hearing and feeling the summer. I often stand still listening to the sound of summer.

Rudi otarłeś here for a brilliant haiku! :) The smell of lilac has something to do with the dark sensuality of a rapidly encroaching on the spirit - the smell of sexual connotations, in other words, invoke the night, the darkness when you inhale the smell of lilac. Unusual, yes, I received!

Thank you, Marek!
ReplyDeleteIndeed I wanted to write a very sensual text. Scents often have erotic connotations. I agree. So I am happy when a reader has a sensual experience and smells lilac while he is reading and maybe he thinks about a female perfume.
Warm regards
Rudi
