Wind Songs

just off the Island near ‘ol clairvoyant ocean sits
a lonely young son with wind songs in
motion playing tunes all

alone in silence
he plays
just for
his mom
with breezes
on pines and ferns
dancing on wills plays rhythm
in blooze on old Pleasant Hill a North wind
rips an autumn sting fingers plunking though breif
sojourning southward flies the breath of spring song
leaves turn to even’s pleading & with o’er hanging
head and branches leaning silken elbows on
knees reflecting feel his spirit in
genuflecting

fall’s
ever
rushing
in her greeting
forward & ever onward
hills tinted wait her meeting red
horizon lies in ponder sun is setting over yonder


Dale Wayne Gwaltney
Writen after a visit to the Island
and mom’s grave in

Lucky,My Friend~
So very, very lovely ...

'alone in silence
