[T]here is a harmony

In autumn, and a lustre in its sky...

~Percy Bysshe Shelley

Memories of Autumn

Autumn Memories

It's a February night and a lonely bird started singing behind my window. A crystalline song in the crystalline air...How I wish I could still fly away...

Freedom from a dream is still freedom.

In a greatest desperation there is also a calmness when the worst has already happened. In the depths of this blackness there is a grey quite sanctuary, surrounded by the walls of fear and grief and noone can reach you there, no one can hurt you anymore.

How mysterious a human heart is. In instant envy can turn into sympathy, jealousy into compassion and love.. it can just vanish away.

"Your thoughts create your reality ."                                                                                                These days I have created even more chaos and misery for myself.

Today suicidal winds are blowing for me.

One more evening walk

This monument is dedicated to Kiy, Scheck, Horeb and their sister Lybid who were the princes of the tribal association of the Polans (Polyany) and the founders of  three settlements which later formed the city of Kyiv (according to the legend).

According to modern local custom many newly married couples visit that place.
