Tree House


Living in the forest

among green and yellow leaves

rope bridge to the south wing,

my studio and library.


Fairytale castle built of Scots pine

red squirrels dropping in,

reading Italo Calvino, Baron

in the Trees.


So many people here

with long beards like Rolf Lidberg

the troll painter from Sweden;

Hej, maybe I'll grow a little tail.
