Alone in the wild – just for a while
Out of rainfall emerges a creek the roar of a torrential river glimpses deep down a strong wind stirs up the backpack an inner voice whispers beware my friend take care now
Dark scudding clouds crossing swiftly the snow-capped mountain peaks on the horizon
Walks alone
Disappears down into the canyons rainy wild side on a cruise between treacherous slippery muddy rocks balances above the river's strong current until a climb up to a carved hollow sheltered from safe ancient rock outcrops
Finally reaching the hidden point where the soul can get peace and the senses be unfolded without being disturbed time dissolve slowly and life feels infinitely powerful and present
The sun suddenly breaks through warms the wet clothes an eagle crosses slowly the canyon in a beautiful swing the only sound is the distant roar of the river with a strong ozone smell in the nostrils senses disconnects the brain too shortly the world is beautiful from this place on earth
A smile and a deep warm feeling lighten up my eyes for a while never to forget and to carry you on with your life powered up by the nature from where you were born

These days I've been receiving condolences from neighbors and friends from different countries, remembering Henrik with affection and warmth; remembering his reserved but friendly ways, his smile, regretting the loss of a good kind man.
Henrik would have been happy to know how much the people of his beloved mountains loved him!
I wanted to give them voice here, thanking them for all the warmth and friendship they have expressed to me/him.
Grazie mille, köszönöm, tusand tak, thank you!
My poem dedicated to my good friend Henrik......
'Henrik - the death'.
"A good man taken " whispers the 'Majella' mountain
in a sun beamed snow breath.
The words echo down the slopes.
The land of the Viking weeps
for one of its sons of rock.
The black evil seeped into his body and blinded him,
but the Cyclops of his soul fought the last battle.
Upon the funeral pyre his body may burn,
but his light will live forever.
