Star Child in WinterCarefully, I step on the white dusted grass.
The frozen evening dew moistens me.
It is cold – I do not feel it.
Only the silence of the night is all around me.

My hair becomes entangled in an icy wind.
So that I fear to be blown away.
I reach out for the branch of a tree
To seek help and protection.

In front of me I can see the forest in awesome loftiness.
The trees welcome me.
Finally I arrive at the spot I am heading to –
The clearing – a spiritual place.

I stop in the middle of this circle –
Symbol of eternity, image of perfection.
I wait and only my breath can be heard.
Time seems to stand still.

Then, at last – the cloud
Dream of an Elf
There, where the moon shines on the moss,
Where everything radiates in silver and gold,
Where elves and fairies walk hand in hand -
There is my home.

Where the air smells of trees
And where the greatest secret of my heart lies
Is the place I feel like home.

There, where everyone believes in the good
And where inner values still count.
Where all beings are accepted -
There is in the dark light of the night
The bright moon with magical force and soft shine.

Under the protection of the breathing power of the woods
The forest grants me tranquility and deep spiritual peace.
In the origin of my existence I experience
The connection o
Deeply rooted in Mother Earth
Like with thousand fine roots,
Each tree throngs to the depth
Like Mother Earth presented it
With sweet juices of life.

As it is deeply anchored in Her,
Rises to the light,
Under blossoms, under fruits,
Thankful shines and happily lives.

So you gave me power and blossoms,
Gave me fruits. So you are
My little Mother Earth,
I am deeply rooted in you!
Eternal Wood
Eternal wood with thousands of tree-tops,
In your halls dwells peace.
With your incessant rustle
You still the longing of my heart.

In silent devotion, the mouth must
Fail there miserably.
Only bird-singing has here the right
To beat the time.

Each tree loves its neighbour,
Together they carry the weight.
Caress each other tenderly with the branches,
Hugs themselves when they like.

For how many animals do you offer
A safe habitat?
For how many flowers do you care
Which trust blindly your protection?

Eternal wood with thousands of tree-tops,
Mother Earth may preserve you.
At all times and forever
You should develop yourself
Entreaties to Nature
You gave us the sun for our time
And we know that when it will sink forever
Also each life on this planet will be extinguished.
In vain were all hopes, plans
And their fulfilments.

Let our hearts love and not hate,
Let our hands do good whenever it is needed
So that they help and do not kill.

Let our transitory and often hard lifes
Find faith and support with your powers.
With that we put up resistance to
Injuries and afflictions and do not let us
Deviate from our good intentions.

When our lips express our thoughts
Let them always form words of truth and of good will.
And that nobody is harmed in his dignity and reputation
By
A Magic Night of Sorrow and Hope
I feel that something in the wood is other than usual.
There is a happy mood that is mysterious at the same time.
The senses are sharpened.

Like from afar I mean to hear the music of elves.
The songs they are singing are merry and joyous.
Songs that echo through the night that will not become dark.
Songs, penetrating deep into my soul.
That let me forget this world and make me dreaming.

But beyond all high mountains, under oaks and beeches dense.
There, where the moss has a sappy green and
The light breaks through the foliage,
Lies a pool deeply hidden, legendary and mythical,
Carries a whispering secret, conceals its power in the
My Old Friend
I just wanted to see you again, my old friend of childhood days.
I had so many things to say to you
And knew that you would understand me.
Already as a little girl I visited you
With all my problems.
I felt safe with you
And all grief flew away.
When I was weeping in your arm,
You have caressed my hair
With your green leaves,
My old friend.

Today you fell!
I came too late.
You will never sway in the wind again.
You have to lie chopped by the wayside.
Some passers-by do not respect the rest of life
And tear at your green boughs
Which bend to the earth, dying.
Who will give me the peace now
That I found in your shade
Nocturnal Woods
I see the sky, the moon and the earth -
Dreaming, meditating.
It is the air, the fields and the woods ...
Starlit is the night.
My soul relaxes
And floats through the silence.

Second! Stand still and stay!
You are just so wonderful!
Let all the others move on,
Drops in the sea of time -
Past.

The wood does not hear the waves,
But the trees know my silent song.
Leaves are touched by the moonlight.
Stricken by the silvery wonder,
My heart sees the truth of existence.
Some Time in InfinityBut I know there is another world
Some time in infinity.
Some time I will meet you again,
In the light dwelling of continuity.

I lay at the creek and think of you,
Not far from me you are standing.
The water is quiet,
Your leaves do not rustle,
Silenced in my heart as well
Every day's pain neverending.

You give me strength,
You comfort me,
Also in the greatest need.

My thanks are yours,
My good friend, my tree,
Forever,
Never I would like to miss you.

You are the ashes,
Burnt in many dreams.
But from your ashes,
The diamond is forming itself.

I hold a diamond into the starlight,
Move myself to its radiance.
How the ligh
Nature's Night Song
Everywhere cool and silent
The trees spread their shadows.
And I feel, speechless bowing,
That I am deeply sheltered.

It is as if the sky
Has silently kissed the earth
That she in nature's glory
Now has to dream of him.

In the forest, there is a green spot.
It is shady and is clear,
Has still seen anybody
Except the stars – and me.

The wind blows through the fields,
The gras waves gently.
The woods rustle silently
So starlit is the night.

Bright, in a solemn bow,
Star for star rises from the wood
And in the hills around nestles
The land and keeps silence.

And my soul spreads
Widely its wings,
Flies through the sile
Enchanted Paths
Fundamentally, the world dreams of a magic subtle and bright.

Here, the nature lies wet with dew – no human hand has ever hurt it.
The scent of flowers floats through the air and the herbs wave gently in the wind.
Only a soft melody of elfish nature – carried by silence – enormously delicate.

Here lie the dreams that will become truth,
Here lies the real power of Earth.
On enchanted paths, born by elven magic –
Everything shall be possible and the way is full of wonders.
My thoughtsWhere are my thoughts?
My thoughts are not here.
They are far away
And drift in the distance.

Often I lifted my head and looked up to the moon.
Often I lowered the glance and thought of somewhere else.

When - finally - when I will be there
Where my heart feels drawn to?

No answer .... silence!

My wish will only stay a dream forever.

Being captured in this body,
Being captured in this time,
Being mingled with human society,
But being remembered that I will never feel quite human.

Where I belong?
I have dreamt that dream for long
And it stays always in my mind.

But I notice clearly fine
That only the ways of nature can be mi
SoulsSouls -
Also yours are like the birds in the sky!
Don't let a storm be averted
That you cannot survive yourself.
Don't let be danger taken from you
That you cannot face yourself!
Don't let love get spoiled
That you wish for yourself;
Don't let freedom be taken
That you try to fight for!
Don't let dreams be stolen
That you are ready to dream!

Souls -
Also yours are like the birds in the sky!
When you are desperate
I will lend you my wings!
To see you fly freely!
And you will conquer all!
Even yourself - if it should be!
Because you are happy -
and free!
Light and DarknessHigh up in the sky, there is a light -
Shining like a candle that will never go out.
It sparkles so beautiful like the starlight
But this light will never be alone.

In the darkness no shadow can exist,
But the bright radiance and the beauty of the stars penetrates it.
The obscurity cannot be without light
For then the world would be completely dark or forever very pure.
Tears in the MoonTears,
Shimmering pearls
In my eyes,
gently moisten my cheeks -
incessant.

Moon -
Shines bright
In dark night -
Glittering silverbeam in sky -
hopeful.

Dream or Reality?

:iconmalintra-shadowmoon:

The night is beautiful out there,

It is clear and pure.

Twinkling stars are strewn across the firmament,

Moon is looking down on me.

He was the only one who has seen my latest tears.....

The moon and my friend...



"Listen to me, my oaken friend,

today I am not weeping out of frustration, self-doubt nor sadness,

this night I am coming to share my tears of joy with you.

I have friends,

People who do not ask,

Who do not judge me.

Have I come home at last?

No words that I need a professional, nor other words of discrimination.

No words that my kind is not welcome.

Do not shake your leaves, it is no dream.

I hope so. It is hope and joy.

And I hope there is more to come."

Yes, you are partly right, but it is just a bit more than only interest.... It is life....no it is even more than this life.

I understand you, also I found my path and started to walk on it many years ago, and I meet a lot of people along the way how tried to force on my their opinion that if I choose spirituality as a lifestyle I shall get nowhere but they were wrong. I got as far as I had to and it taught me everything about life, and also by learning meditation I arrived to a point of inner balance which is hard to sustain.

Thank you for the comments. May you be blessed by the Pure, Clean, Sacred and Cosmic Energy along you path and journeys. Namaste :iconbowplz:
