Winter is knocking at the door




There you go... The evidence... The first snow has fallen here...

Funny... The same thing happens every single year in Oslo... You would think that people who lives in Norway would expect snow to fall when it gets colder... But na-ah... Every time it is chaos;)) I guess everyone is like me... Trying to block out the coming winter until the evidence is right there outside your window... Only I am not stupid and drive then...

The Mystic's Dream by Loreena McKennitt


Lady of Baghdad, oil on canvas by William Clarke Wontner, 1900


A clouded dream on an earthly night
Hangs upon the crescent moon
A voiceless song in an ageless light
Sings at the coming dawn
Birds in flight are calling there
Where the heart moves the stones
It's there that my heart is longing
All for the love of you

A painting hangs on an ivy wall
Nestled in the emerald moss
The eyes declare a truce of trust
And then it draws me far away
Where deep in the desert twilight
Sand melts in pools of the sky
When darkness lays her crimson cloak
Your lamps will call me home

And so it's there my homage's due
Clutched by the still of the night
And now I feel you move
Every breath is full
So it's there my homage's due
Clutched by the still of the night
Even the distance feels so near
All for the love of you.



The concert on Saturday was truly amazing. This was the opening song, and one of my favorites. It draws me in and I can easily see stories in the music... Definitely a song that has made it to the Soundtrack
