    Dawning Day After the Storm

    Here's a lyric music video of the same poem (music made with the help of AI). I'll delete the old poetry video linked earlier in this thread because this one is much better.

    Maximilian's Cross

    In the turmoil of a world aflame, under war's darkened sky, A glimmer of hope arose, with eyes of conviction held high. From the heart of Poland’s plight, defying the teeth of despair, Maximilian, his greatness lent, a light from Heaven's air. Against the storm, against the dark, In steadfast...

    Grace and Peace

    If someone found the musical adaptations (with the aid of AI) in my other threads "too heavy," then the one I made from this poem may be more to their liking: https://suno.com/song/3bc3867a-c402-4c86-956a-e8fcf6728edc

    Salvation Amidst the Waters

    Here's another one of my attemps to convert my poems into music with the help of AI. I have a few others in the works but this is probably the one I like the most so far: https://suno.com/song/6fdb90c3-d0e9-4b87-984c-a00b23fb413e

    Promises of the Covenant

    OK, here's my attempt to turn the poem into music with AI (musically, i did very little - just inserted the lyrics, twiddled some settings and let AI doing its thing). Comments and criticism are welcomed. This genre of music may divide opinions, but personally I think it fits well with spiritual...

    Dad jokes

    Christian Rock and Metal

    Here's a Finnish Christmas song that starts as relatively mellow but morphs into something like metal or hard rock at around 2 minutes (this is part of an event that presents Christmas songs in "heavier" style after all). I'll add my own translation of the lyrics below. Night falls on the...

    Christmas Desserts!

    Traditional Finnish star-shaped Christmas tarts. I've eaten a lot of these. Haven't really ever made any of them all by myself, although it shouldn't be difficult if you use ready-made puff pastry sheets. The most common filling is prune jam, although there are many other options that some...

    The Lamb and the Shepherds, Wisdom and His Seekers

    I haven't had the time to write any new poems recently. But here's a video version of this Christmas poem I wrote last year.
