       Echo of My Heart

Menacing cloud-legions
roll in relentless cadence
through a dismal, foreboding,
   November sky
over this bleak land bereft
of all color and purpose.
These drear November days
are the millstones of the
forlorn mind and spirit with
far, far too many miles
between our ‘nows.’
Looking for your smile …
Longing for your touch …
Listening for your echo  
    of my heart...
in this cold, relentless and
indifferent Winter wind
across Life’s wide, dark
   and alien plain.
Who might have known
that I could ever miss
anyone this much.
I know that my final
words ever spoken
will simply be how much
I love you, dearest lady-fine.
