Požáru Mraky

Fire clouds
burn the sky
blues are seared
and turned into


 scorching gold
orange heat
yellow sweat
and boiling red

Fire clouds
burn the sky
as sun gives way
to moon's cool light

Noční Mrak

Beware of the night cloud
that comes out in day,
the sky will turn dark
and your soul will decay.

 
 The night cloud is fearless,
all mercy is dead
when the sky turns from blue
to a devilish red.

The night cloud will cover
the sun at high noon
and transform the gold
to a silvery moon.

Beware of the night cloud
with its secretive ways,
your soul is in danger
of losing its days.

Řeka Mraky


These clouds are from far away and a long time ago.


It wasn't Bohemia,
but when the river froze and the sun shone,
it could trick you into believing that
Bohemia is everywhere.

Horské Mraky

Mountain clouds
are devilish things,
they trick and twist
and taunt with glee.


Is it a mountain
or a cloud
that floats up there
so casually?

Mountains solid
reach up high,
clouds of fluff
do hang so low

that peaks of snow
and woodsy brush
get swallowed up
in bluish glow.

Mountain clouds
are devilish things,
they trick the eyes
from far and near.

The land and sky
blend into one,
and poor horizons
 disappear.
