Soft lights in the car park
illuminating walls and posters
and ticket machines
guiding the way up and down
Shadows of lustre
until
a humming motor enters
bathing all in a garish light
Others leave
And then peace again
I bid farewell and leave my car
to absorb the lustres of illuminations
Afterwards the car park sleeps again
We have cards with a 50 franc value and when it is used we can load the card again. I once wanted to leave the car park at the exit machine. I was sitting in the car with running motor and dropped the card. That was very complicated
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.

It was in a Swiss car park that I got the Rosetta Stone to German. “Karte Einstecken” above the narrow orifice. Stick in the card. Magic.
