Sweden like a dream
The most important is that I went out in the evening to try them. Paper says: water proof and till - 40. So I went in (!) the snow and they are very good and warm. But that´s also not the most important thing.
The really most important is that Sweden looks right now like cut out from a book. White country with little lights shining from windows, silence, snow slowly falling and swinging down to the white soft ground which makes the reflection of street lamps being pink on the sky..and the snow is falling and falling..
"The Sounds Of Silence."
Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone,
Narrow streets of cobblestone.
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night, and touched the sound of silence.
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never shared.
And no one dared disturb the sound of silence.
"Fools," said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might lead you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed in the wells of silence.
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls, and whispered in the sounds of silence."
"Simon and Garfunkel".
Precis!!!
