empty cavaties

I wonder sometimes if the wind
will ever stop with its eternal
chittering, its useless chatter...
fidgeting and clawing, craving
entry into all the empty cavaties
Begging and pleading with the
chimes to tell its story,
Which they do of course, every
time, with ferocious ringing clarity
Tormented tales that terrify the
night and I, with endings that
never ever change
For it always dies...the wind...
in the end, in every ending it ever lives...
it always dies

Since it costs nowt to wonder,
I would not discourage you or anyone
from participating in such a potentially enlightening activity .. 

and get this, since no one
was ever harmed during the course of merely wondering ..
and ... every now and then,
something as good comes of it .. like these fine words for example
that you have laid before us here ..
to consider and wonder upon, I am tempted to come and join you in your wondering ...

Seriously enjoyed Marion & no kiddin ... N :)
