Tonight was movie night with the kids. We saw The Mitchells vs the Machines, as usual I had the English subtitles on since the Swedish translations don’t always do the original justice and since it can be hard to hear with two kids talking. I don’t have much to say about the movie. What struck me as so often before is how the music plays such a big part of the experience, and how they like the credits nearly as much as the film because it’s a chance to dance and sing.
Music has always been a big part of my life, listening to, singing, dancing to. So I’m not surprised this streak is clearly visible in my children.
Life begins with sound
Fortissimo live-spark start
Heartbeat, boom, boom, boom

The Haiku is made up of three lines from the first stanza of my poem Life begins with Sound published in The Poet’s Symphony.
