Love Triangle
Late rainy autumn was standing near the window,
she was waiting for the wind to come
-Where are you, my naughty fellow?
-Where are you caring along, my charm?
She was irritated by his carelessness,
she was angry with his frivolity
But still admired his appearance,
and still was charmed by his self-confidence.
Autumn was always a woman,
red-haired and very susceptible,
a little ...

I Am the Wind
I am the Wind,
I am a personification of freedom.
The whole Earth presents my kingdom.
That only one can be my wife
whose soul is free,
who understands my life.
Trust me and I’ll show you what freedom is.
But…don’t be in a hurry, please!
My gift of freedom is eternity,
it comes together with paternity.
My breathing is the God’s touch.
Just close your eyes
and you will fee...

Curves in a line
Are you alright?
Losing lines in my spiralled speckled sight
Out of hand, edging the paint
Were you ever in control?
Same route, different day
What is there more to say?
Maybe this day I'll tune in outside
And see what the world is trying to hide
It's a beautiful day, if you want it
Keep the cold wind somewhere in
Whether you like it or not
The sun is the...

The wasted wind
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind - Bob Dylan
What force can power the years ahead?
Now the age of oil is dead
we wait for industry to heed
the whisper of the wasted wind,
the whisper of the wasted wind.
A pivotal crisis is upon us
and ready or not we shoulder the onus.
We must make good or else be goners,
be dust dispersed by the wasted wind,

The Shadow of the Wind
Under the moon's silver glow
I heard the wind blow
the autumn leaves flew past me,
like charms in night's debris,
the wind it cools,
the night was full of the airs of scented jewels,
the breeze blew on the lake causing ripples of light and shadow,
I hear the wind's cries and see its tears which fly and show,
as crystalline glowing rain, it is the coming of a storm,
the shadows of the ...

Wind
I hear you, sneaking there – whispering among the tree’s,
A delicate touch, they barely stir, as you dance amongst the leaves.
You carry scent, the messages of life, as across the land you fly,
With hidden notes upon your wings, story's spun within the eye.
Yet upon a whim your attitude can change, your ire you want to show.
You shake, you roar, you bend and break – you hu...

Insecure Wind ??
Feel my cool breath
on your skin
I saw you were dewy
and needed it
Did you catch my little rustle of the leaves?
Stroll under those
old oaks and notice
I make sounds
just like the ocean
Shhhhhhhhhh, can you hear my artistry?
My gentle breeze flirts
with your curls
Yet I destroy whole cities
with my whirls
Can’t you see how soft and strooo...

letter to spring
letter to spring / michael kwack
in a wind
there i smell a scent of spring
i've passed the winter away
in a far place alone
but it was now
only hours of emptiness
i've got to write letters
the last confession to myself
then meet the spring
in complete quietness

THERE IS A WIND
The wind in the trees the sound of what it like to be free
The cry of a newborn son is the beginning of love
Where is that mountain top where Martin saw the dream
Where is that path to the valley of peace
Where is that message of hope hidden from me
The wind on the water pushing the waves of the past
The cry of dignity echoing through these monuments and memorials

A Perfect Afternoon
Leisurely and alone,
I was wandering in the museum garden.
Flowers were completely gone,
But deep green summer leaves fully grown,
And on each branch
Small birds all the way chirping:
Certainly for me a perfect afternoon
To be seated still and calm,
To be lost in poem-reciting!
But suddenly a wind arose
When a human voice caught my ear,
Saying low ye...

The Poor Little Dove
The Poor Little Dove/Michael Kwack
To watch the wave play with the wind,
I sat by the museum garden pond.
Then a small pigeon came flying,
Landed to her feet, tiny and cute,
And stared up at me, a bit intensely,
Only blinking her eyes, no other move.
She was like a camera model baby,
And I recalled my infanthood pictures.
I started taking some ph...

Blow wind blow
Strong powerful it hit the shores, sea waves crashed over sea walls
Powerful determined to be free. Death total rising trees falling.
Thunder lightening flashing the sky. Tin cans and dust bins pass by.
This storm out to destroy everything in its path and beyond tonight.
Rain lashing down, drains can't take this water, we have floods now
Its worse than a monsoon feels like a TV f...

Moments
Do you ever want to
hold on to a moment
because it feels divine?
A moment when the stars align,
and everything is fine.
A moment when you make peace
with your past, and your pain.
A moment when there is
no sorrow, no shame.
A moment when fear
takes a hike.
A moment when the sky is clear,
the air is forgiving,
and sun shines bright.
A moment when everything

The Sterling Castle, 1703
The sands move
brushed by moray tale
shivered in clouds
by a sole's shy shift
the currents stir
shaking silt
to mist the sea
to settle -
moving time
over an old log reel,
clearing the centuries
discovering old timbers:
dead ribs
reaching up to past waves
offering their history
to the naked shipworms.
As the crabs scuttle to explore
as stars cree...

Whispering wind
Soft swathes of September wind
stroke my welcoming skin,
its warm touch offers solace
to my stationary form.
A slow slight cadence
and a flighty rhythm,
this wind it soothes me.
Eyes closed shut so tightly
that sleep begins its
slow inward stroll
to silently steal my waking world,
and deliver me to the dream domain
where the calming wind
continues to hold me ...

Summer Seascape
In the sun's mid-day heat
I see the tall field grasses flow, swell
and come towards me in waves
surging before the day's wind
the seed-head spume constantly bowing
seems to fall on the field strand where I stand.
The rhythmic onslaught of the waves
continues through the long afternoon -
a tide of wind-driven swells and rollers
always flowing to my feet, w...

Against Wind
Make it easy. Do it simple.
Just pray for God, to bless.
Love colleagues, & friends.
Surely, you gain a higher success,
Do it now, don't delay it.
Do it again, day by day.
Get that job, reach the top.
Not impossible, just try.
Do advise, every friend.
Shiny future, comes at end.
Do your best. Now, get rid.
Of any weakness, at any wind.

The Wind Is Howling
In the grate, the shivering flames
hungrily wrap their lips around logs
The boards above me creek
my wife haunting somewhere
the baby's hands reach out
wave before its sleeping eyes
The wind is howling...
The smiles on our faces as we galloped down the aisle
making sense of scattered photograph moments
but I can't remember why
can't think of anything but waiting
and doing everything...

Wind Dance
Sycamore leaves dance
In only the lightest breeze
They never turn askance
Like leaves on other trees
Sycamore leaves flair
Within their perfect ballet
In just the lightest air
Blowing up the valley

Just Me
Cold mornings
Warm bath water
It suffocates me
Its calming taking my breathe away
The water is loving me
Turning me on
No one is here with me
Spread my legs
Allowing the water to pour down
Sending shopping spree tension down, on the lower half of me
My hands play free in my park
As, no one was there to question me; what do I like best at my water park
The ocean ...

Maria Dominica
Verse 1
The wild winds tear out in the night
As Maria rips the roofs off with all of her might.
Destroying everything she can
Till the people cry out in vain and fright
The rain, then mud it falls and falls
I cannot clear the image out
Chorus
Gonna take a lot to keep me away from there
There's a lot that 100 men can do
Gonna take some time to make it right again.

Autumn
And then, suddenly, it was calm - the morning wind which threw
rain hard against the window panes and sent beech leaves rushing
across the grass to pile gold-brown against all that the borders grew,
all slowly dulling their greens to wet, muted browns, brushing
the soil as their leaves curl and droop - vibrant Spring-strength gone,
fading sadly.
The wind ...

Candlelit Cigarette
All these new things,
Happening.
Time passes through me like a breeze -
But the hours feel like eternity.
These cigarettes hurt me,
But I can still breathe -
My heart skipping beats -
Occasionally.

A Message to the New Government
The nation needs renewables now!
The nation needs renewables now!
As Once-great Britain takes a bow
and we leave the stage of the European Union,
the quintessential issue's the quandary how
we accommodate the suck of an economy consuming
two thousand million megawatt hours
of climate wrecking energy by the year
when there's finite reserves of fossil fuel power.
I spurn the allegation ...

STORM FRONT
Away in the distance on a cold dreary night,
the horizon is lit by flickering lights.
Storm clouds as black as the darkest heart
and lightning tears the very air apart.
A grumbling mass of swirling bile,
the silence, the earth, the night to defile.
Like distant portents of desolate doom,
sorry shadows of a dusk too soon.
The dull silhouette of the thunderheads mas...

FOAMING FURY
FOAMING FURY
Against a backdrop of broiling grey
The dancing colours flap & wave away
To all who can see and for all left to be
A warning about the worsening sea
A relentless outburst of desperate cries
Fighting the force of the cloudy sighs
And the seas whip up a daring wager
To all who seek the thrill of danger
Teasing and testing the brave and bold
Icy waves, so strong and co...

Cromer
the sea is rattling bones today
and the wind holds my ears to ransom
for want of a scarf and a hat
she is walking on the promenade
and wants no part of the play
so I am talking to the man on the pier
with the rods and ask
“what’s your game?“

and if he’s lucky

Across the sea
The wind that blows
in a breath of time
has no borders,
as it sings new ways
like flickering waves
across the sea.

Our Home Cannot Be Here
I lit a fire on the beach
Just as you were feeling beaten by the wind
We can't hear anything in this weather
But the waves and the crackling wood
You don't speak anyway
We have nothing we care to say
Our human silences amid nature's screams
Fill me with a loss so unforgettable
Our human silences amid nature's screams
Fill me with a void so inescapable
The sky goes dark and the sea sl...
