Comes the Wind

"comes the wind"

comes the wind,
a gust as whisper,
not a breeze, just
a hint, of someone
loving you.

comes the birds,
innocent as wisdom,
not by guile, they
find their way
to you.

comes the leaves,
falling lit as gold,
not by chance
they drape a bed
for you.

comes the memory,
one then many,
not by regret
they abide
in you.

comes the night,
but not forever,
by love from embers
the sun again
will rise
for you.

This now has special meaning Mark. Yes...those alone moments out in nature which speaks very loudly in whispers from the lost. I have felt this also...sometimes a particular moment is actually stilled isn't it...as if captured in its own time bubble while the message is received. A beautiful write my friend...hugs x

hello Marion,

i was listening to some music tonight and remembered this poem and one of the stanzas i have always wanted to change... so here i am to change it

i don't know if I ever said "thank you", you understood what moment prompted the writing of this poem

we are alone sometimes, then comes the wind
