Fortitude
though winds hurl
with all their might
they cannot break me

Look at me now, torn and cast into the unforgiving wind of passingLook at me now, torn and cast into the unforgiving wind of passing,
Just as a bored child abandons a broken doll,
Seeking something else to fill their heart with new laughter and colors,
Torn and cast away, I can offer nothing more, I am a vessel emptied of the essence of giving.
Perhaps, if you would let me...

A Calling WindWe often reach the future
by sailing in the past
Our course in life a distant breeze
— that steps tomorrows mast

Deep InsideDon’t tell
me
what I
already know
Don’t give
me
what I
already have
Don’t take
me
where I’ve
already been
Don’t play
me
what I’ve
already heard
Dissuading
moments
when left
unbound
Preempt
the silence
a devil’s
sound
But deep
inside
satanic
winds
A Savior
whispers
beyond
— the din

Changing TackEnrolling as a pirate is much harder than it seems,
You’ll need to speak in present tense and chase your wildest dreams.
Well, once you’ve trained a parrot and been measured for your hook,
You have to plough through pages of the health and safety book.
The pointed end’s the bow, whilst your rudder’s near the aft,
Our crow’s...

If money were just withered leaves carried by the windIf money were just withered leaves carried by the wind,
I would open a small flower shop on a forgotten street,
where days drift by slowly, and the air smells of fresh, gentle rain,
and the wind always carries the scent of clear mornings.
I would live alone in an old cottage,
deep in the mountains, where the trees are...

Sun, Sand and SeaWalking barefoot along the beach
the sun is setting over the waters
and it paints the sky orange and pink.
The wet sand squishes between my toes,
I take a deep breath of the salty air
close my eyes and listen to
the squawk of the gulls and
the waves lapping the shore.
Enamored of the magical moon
the waves of the...

Under the sky laden with mystery, where the wind sings its endless talesUnder the sky laden with mystery, where the wind sings its endless tales,
Life begins to sketch your outlines, even when you are not prepared,
Just as a tree does not know how to bend until the wind shows it,
The art of not breaking under the burden of storms that embrace it forcefully.
Like a river that seeks...

Christ is Risen! whispers the wind through the branches of memoryChrist is Risen! whispers the wind through the branches of memory,
The prayer of the blade of grass rises like a song of rebirth,
And in every drop of dew, the sky lays down its ancient tale.
In the depths of the forest where deer write their dreams with graceful flight,
In the peach blossoms that rise like stars...

The Wind of Change and Electric Fire
From Hanover's heart, a thunder rolled,
A scorpion's sting, a story told.
Through decades vast, their music soared,
A legacy in rock forever stored.
Rudolf Schenker, the steady hand,
Whose riffs ignited every land.
His Flying V, a lightning strike,
That fueled the passion day and night.
Klaus Meine's voice, a soaring cry,
That reached for heavens, way up high.
A power ballad's tender grace,
Or...

The Whisper through the WindThe whisper through the Wind
The wind whispers a cry, a howl of sadness
the wind whispers a song, a howl of gladness
the wind whispers a message for you and me
the wind whispers and we here but can not see
At night and in the light the wind whispers
Over the mountain and in the canyon the wind whispers
The...

the Wind and IOne night
I felt the wind -
as it brushed
across my soul,
and I remember times -
from too long past
that touched me...

whether one is in bed or on a mountaintop.

The rush of wind,
and hush of chimes, between breaths.
