Eulenflug/ Flight of the Owl/ Vuelo De La LechuzaAm späten Abend
Eine einsame Eule
In ihrem tiefen Flug
An einer hellen Mondnacht
Das leichte Rauschen vom Fluss
-------------------------------------
In the late evening
A lonesome owl
In her deep flight
At a bright moonlit night
Light rushing of the river
-------------------------------------
Una lechuza solitaria
A última hora de la tarde
En su bajo vuelo
A noche brillante...

Birch BarkBirkenrinde / Birch Bark / Corteza de abedul (Haiku)
Die Birkenrinde
Wie hell sie so schön erstrahlt
Im hellen Lichtschein
The bark of birches
Shines so beautifully bright
In clear sunlight

Tan maravillosamente brilla
En clara luz del sol...

EveningAbend /Evening / La tarde
Die Sterne
wie Weidegras, silbern leuchtend
im hellen Mondlicht.
Nur leichter Wind
in den Bäumen
wie geheimnisvolles Flüstern.
Der Abend beginnt
wie ein romantisches Ballett.
Und Wolken zeichnen
ihre Schattenbilder,
fantastische Portraits im Wechsel
The stars
like grass of pastures, silvery bright
in clear moonlight.
Only slight wind
in the...

Schatten im hellen Mondlicht
Pferde im Galopp
Ein Geräusch vom nahen Wald
Einsamer Ruf einer Eule

Shades in the bright moonlight
Horses in gallop
A sound from the near woods
A lonesome call of an owl

Communicating With Those Who CannotEveryone has a desire to communicate
just because you don't understand them
doesn't mean they're not trying to tell you something
being able to be there, to work on being able to recieve the message
Just because someone doesn't sound smart
doesn't mean they don't have hundreds of things to...

Atacama / German VersionAtacama, Eden der Winde,
Blume der einsamen Steine und des Salpeters,
Heimstatt der Flamingos und der Geysire,
und über allem,
unter einem azurenem und tiefem Himmel
tragen die Berge auf ihren Spitzen
das Eis der Vergangenheit.
Alte Dörfer erzählen uns ihre Geschichten,...

The Bitterness of HoneyThe day’s been impressively amazing
Because everything was entertaining
Birds sang sweetly in shrubs like Hellen
On blossoms lots of bees sought pollen
Bumblebees have been busy like a hussy
Feeling how the day has been shambolic
Because on the path, I heard a heavy truck
That was rolling on...

I wonder if I could make love to you through another woman would it ease the pain

Dumb and BlindI didn't always envy Hellen Keller,
With feeling one end on a string
Has no answer to a warm bell laughing.
Having felt luscious bullets in times of grace,
Like sweat fornicating on its face,
Or heavy jubilee with disconnecting -
Erecting with joy no covers in space,
Not knowing of another...

Silence captured the mountains

All the dance
Gathered there
Somewhere
All that ever did
All that ever will
Exist
All This now
In the quiet
Becoming WHOLE

no mind
Mind screen bare

Her giggles tickles me
Her eyes sparkles blooms of roses, if wishes were horses I would clone a dozen of her
She has an aura of elegance and poise
Her charismatic and charming smile is the ambience that sets off the mood for love
