My last post was about the blue, blue skies with beautiful white clouds…
But, do you ever walk through the night sky? Touch the stars with your toes and breathe in the darkness of the universe?
I do.
Sometimes.

Just press play to start the video.
It is soft and bouncy. Just me on my journey through the stars which sometimes tickle the soles of my feet, when I pay close enough attention…
I made a video of it, the old-fashioned, stop-motion way. My camera did not catch the amazing Namibian night sky with its plethora of little stars, but you can at least see some of the big ones.
This post is dedicated to the awesome poetess Indigo Spider (if you have not checked our her fine spider web-weaving, delicately crafted and powerful writing, please do so), who commented on my last blog that she prefers the night skies over the day skies.
So I thought, wait a minute, I have something very special to share with you. An artwork, which also still needs to see the light of day…
Thank you, Indigo Spider, for being a kindred soul, virtual blogging friend and continuous source of inspiration and support!
Enjoy watching the short video!
PS. I miss the warm summer nights of Windhoek, when I can be outside and play like this forever.

P.S.: You make me blush with your description of my writing.
I adore your writing and I often do not comment on it, because I feel so humbled and at loss of words, because your writing hits so deep and powerful. 🙂
This was lovely! I would love to “walk” the stars, amazing 🙂 I bet the skies are fabulous in Namibia with all the stars. It is on my list of places I want to visit someday!
Yes, the skies are stunning, so sad one cannot see it in my pictures/video, as the camera was struggling getting the light right for my legs… It would be awesome if one day you come to visit Namibia and us!
