Tiny Island

So tiny

yet home for men

since the great glacier

withdrew.

 

New climate 

changed by men

creates time of sunset 

for the tiny.



Homewards

To get home,

occasionally,

you have to cross oceans

of rough sea

 

 



Defenders of Nature:

Defenders of nature:

Please rise!

Feel the spirits

of great ancient forests.

Let the remaining spots of wild places

host your souls.

Defenders of nature:

Take action!

Be the voice

of beautiful wild creatures.

Represent their kind when modern society

threatens with extinction.

Defenders of nature:

Listen!

Hear the cry

from numerous unborn generations.

Fight for the right for the children of tomorrow

to live with nature.

Hiding

I met you in the forest. You were hiding behind trees.
I am not your kind.

Still I felt your presens; silently, communicative eye to eye.
Why are you hiding from mankind?

You don’t have to speak.

A glimpse of your eyes and I understand;
I am not your kind.

Power

They try to capture the power of nature
through wires of copper and steel.
But the power of clouds rambling the forest
can only be captured by an open mind.

Winter Birches

Snowcovered fingers touching me,
chilling my neck as I gently push you aside.
Searching the hart of the forest,
you will still be there when I am gone.

Shadow in the dark

Not really sure
if you were there.
Still my encounter with you
were true.

The Forest



"Coniferous forest" - the teacher told me - consist mainly of pine, spruce and in some places larch.
But I know better;
In the forest you will encounter fairytales and hidden mysteries.

Haunted



You came suddenly out of the dark forest. Looking frightened.
You fled away. Haunted. Something terrible were chasing you.
"To eat or to be eaten" were the rules you lived by.
You didn't know this rule; "to be extinct".
