Da sind wir wieder...frisch aus einem wieder viel zu kurzen Wochenende. Na, seid ihr schon am Strand, in den Bergen oder auf Balkonien? Genießt ihr den Sommer, egal wie leicht er es uns macht? Oder braucht ihr gerade eine kleine Aufmunterung, weil vor euch ein Berg voller Arbeit liegt und der Sommerurlaub noch nicht in Sicht?...wie auch immer...vielleicht bringen meine Gedanken euch auf andere Ideen. Ich bewege mich heute nämlich durch meine kunterbunte Vergangenheit...durch diese Düfte, Geräusche und Bilder, die mich an meine Kindheit erinnern und mir den "Sommer von früher" wiederbringen. Ich denke an den Geruch von nassem Asphalt nach einem Sommerregen, an frischen Butterkuchen im Gras, an einen Strauß vom Wiesenglück...an Johannisbeeren und Zuckerbrot...an frische Wäsche auf der Leine...an Grashüpfer im Glas...und Glühwürmchen in der Dämmerung...an handgewebte Blätterbilder...an das Glück zählen in der Nacht...an Zitronenlimonade und Wassereis...und Blumenkränze im Haar...an geheime Verstecke...und Gruselgeschichten...an Doctor Snuggles, Flipper und Co...an Flohwalzer auf dem Klavier meiner Oma ... an Himmelblau und Blümchenmuster...an Tage voller Glück...für immer im Herzen...und nie ganz vorbei...wie schön...ich denk zurück...und ihr?...
Here we are again ... fresh from a much too short weekend. Well, you're already on the beach, the mountains or on your balconies? Enjoying your summer, no matter how easy it makes it to us? Or do you just need a little encouragement, because before you is a mountain of work and the summer holiday isn´t yet in sight? ... Whatever ... maybe my thoughts bring you on other ideas. I'm moving today, namely by my colorful past ... through these scents, sounds and images that remind me of my childhood and bring me back to "the summer of the past". I remember to the smell of wet asphalt after a summer rain, to fresh butter cake in the grass, to a bouquet of meadow luck ... to currants and sugar bread ... fresh laundry on the line ... to grasshoppers in the glass and fireflies at dusk ...to "handwoven leaves pictures" ...to counting the happiness in the night ... and to lemonade and water ice...and flower wreaths in your hair ... to secret hiding placesand ghost stories ... to Doctor Snuggles, Flipper and Co ... Flohwalzer on the piano at my grandmother ... to blue sky and floral pattern ... to days full of happiness ... forever in my heart ... and never quite over ... how exciting ...i remember and you? ...
