O meu eco de pegadas

amortecido em sussurros silenciosos

marcha na chuva

In the dark of night
a wild and woolly wind blows
scattering my mind

My footsteps echo

muffled in silent whispers

walking in the rain

In each drop of rain

needles trace a winter sky

shadows shroud my dreams

Icy hail needles

I've been to a few castles in Japan, but my two favorite are the black one in Matsumoto (松本城) and the white one in Aizu Wakamatsu. This castle is sometimes called Tsuruga Castle (鶴ヶ城) and sometimes Wakamatsu Castle (若松城). But anyway, I think this white castle looks best in white - what a cool castle.

In 1908, the town of Kolmanskop in southern Namibia had become a profitable gold mine. Abandoned in 1954, the homes, hospitals, theaters, and factory buildings were left at the mercy of the Namib desert. The strong desert winds have filled the rooms of these deserted buildings with mountains of sand.
