Gypsy! Gypsy!! Hi! Hi!!
I am a Gypsy!
You are a Gypsy!
Whole World Gypsy! Gypsy!!
Go around Wander! Wander!!
Play music Boogie! Woogie!!
Spirits be Frisky! Frisky!!
Searching Browsing Google! Google!!
Download Upload Apps! Apps!!
Stomach full Giggle! Giggle!!
Hi! Hippy!! I am a Gypsy!!!
Hi! Hippy!! I am a Gypsy!!!
Hi! Hippy!! I am a Gypsy!!!
Hi! All!! I feel in a way in this modern world we are all like the Gypsies, looking to the way we live, going places and the day to day life style the world has now adopted I feel so, isn’t?
Shiva, this sounds sgreat very hectic, I get breathless. 🙂 There is a manic hurry in big parts of the world but I have had a very peaceful morning and I am sure many also follow this path…….or?
How sad for mankind otherwise.

Miriam! That’s so Good you could go into the depth and also give a message. I am so very happy about that. You always know how and what to comment….I am Grateful to YOU.

Shiva🎶
Shiva I totally agree with your words of we all being gypsies and fancy free. I loved the picture u have kept with the awesome poem. It shows all of us on the path to freedom. Great poem
Kamal thanks for totally agreeing, I am happy that all readers are accepting the fact. It is so nice to be like the Gypsies.
I have inserted another image, got it from my friend Deb. You will just love to see that, very appropriate for my post, it has come out so nicely in the frame of the post.
So, having a nice weekend. Mumbai seems to be cool now.
Thanks Shiva and yes living a gypsy life is so beautiful. Ya today it rained here with thundering and lightening with heavy rains so climate is very good.
Hi! Hippy!! I am a Gypsy!!! I’ve always wanted to be a Gypsy, to sing, dance and wander. Then I got older and realise I didn’t have to be a Gypsy to do those things. I love this upbeat Hap-Happy post!!
That’s Good Etta!
So now you realise that you are already one. 😁
I had started to feel that you were missing my posts, but you have come after all,I am so happy.
The immediate previous post is all about Happy and Zappy. I feel you should not miss at least that one. The others are left to your Majesty!
Thanks and Regards

Ben I just now visited your Blog and read one post but in your blog the comment button is not there, only we can put likes. Have you deliberately arranged so that no could comment.
I feel you are such a blogger who would not do it, as you also comment on my posts regularly that makes one HAPPY.
Please look into that if you are ignorant about that.
Shiva
Thank you so much. I have self hosted blog,not on WP platform and you can not commenting through word press reader ,only directly on my blog. I have notice couple blogs there without comment section 🙂
Oh Shiva what fun that was!! You are right in this modern world we can be Gypsies without evening leaving our home. We can travel anywhere in the world via our phone, laptop, pc, or television. We can learn so much and all we have to do is Google!! It makes me feel tipsy tipsy to be a gypsy!! 😉
Hugsy Wugsy, I too love the words of that Gypsy picture however they are not my own, usually they are but in this instance they are not, but they do resonate with me. 🙂

Deb I have been repeatedly singing those words in mind today, yes that’s real fun. Gone are the days of those poor Gypsies, so this is the modern version.
Never mind, I just loved that image and it is well suited in the frame of the post.

Lol…funny how when you get something in your head sometimes it sticks there all day. I love the image and words too…just wanted to let you know that’s all. Happy Singing!!

Exactly Deb when it sticks it sticks for the whole day.
Songs have that capacity to influence our minds so much. In a way its so good. I think we should cultivate and culture the mind in that way. Isn’t?
Happy Singing.🎹

Shiva
This was an interesting post 🙂 It gave me a sense of freedom we all long for – to try out different versions of life and yet some hurriedness with which we live through life.
Hello Shiva, your text is inviting for the dance of life.
On the other side, sorry me for bringing this up, The life of Gypsies wasn’t always like that, like full of freedom they had to experience such harsh lives, being hunted down and killed especially in the WW2. I don’t mean at all to kill your happiness bubble, I fact I love it. Yet as I am always looking on the other side of the coin, well that’s how I was brought up. Have a wonderful Sunday. Thank you for reading my lines.
Oh Cornelia that was so good to read your lines.
I agree the life of gypsies was not always a happy one. Here in India we have the trace of gypsies since a long long time. They had their share of hardships while on the go. But the best part of them was they never lost their courage and were fit enough to face any awkward situation. One should appreciate their zeal and enthusiasm which made them go Wander in Frisky spirits and would always move with the music on and also dance accordingly.
Here I just felt the modern way of life has been so with all the odds one is trying hard to live life happy go lucky style like the gypsies.
I also feel Cornelia that you have contributed more to this post and have inflated the Happiness Bubble in the right perspective. Thanks once again.
Your comments always boost my enthusiasm.
I did have a wonderful Sunday.
You may please write a few lines in response to this, that would make me still more delighted.💞🎶
Shiva
Shiva, thank you for your response and your thoughtful comments, which I agree with. If I have inflated too much of your Happiness Bubble, I dearly apologize. I guess when reading your post some childhood memories did arise within me back than in Germany, that we were taught bad things about Gypsies and that they deserve how they were treated. I even as a child felt this misjudgement as very wrong. I admired their happy spirit in music and dancing.
No apologies please Cornelia. I am happy that you agree. Yes over a period of time society tends to twist certain facts and convert them into myths. This happens even in mythologies too in every race of the world present or past.
Here I feel your spirits are to apply. Just be Happy and Sing Song…
In one of my previous posts I have responded to your comment I think you may not have read…🎶
Thanks
🌷
Maiko YOU are of course a wonderful soul and of the universe, why whenever possible my dear you are the eternal soul.
I only feel your thoughts are to be garnered in that direction.
Be assured you are the Universal Soul like the drop of the ocean. The drop is the ocean.
You enjoyed the post,I am so happy. 💞🎶
Thanks
Shiva
Oh you made my heart turn into a gypsy, Shiva. Loved the awesome poem and the presentation was so beautiful, I have no words to say but that we are all gypsies in our lives and want to be free and roam freely where no one dare touch our souls and we can openly free ourselves. Great post.
Dance little baby Dance…. that was a famous song is it, if I am right. 😂💃
Jacqueline had been to the movies lately? Then come to my latest post Dishoom Dishoom you will enjoy and be happy one more time..💞
Hugs

Beautifully expressed as always. Again this poem is very onomatopoeic with words repeating themselves, song-like. It matches the rhythm and the picture of the dancing people below. It is essentially a poem of joy, a chant to life, very nice. I like the references to Google and to the digital world. In a way, you are blending our still analogic souls with the inevitable digital era. Great! I still have not found a musician for your lovely “Chukku Bukku!” poem (one of my favorites of yours), but I will ask someone I know. We will see… Patience.
