The breeze of time carries me along,
singing to me a faraway song.
No sirens could sing a song so sweet,
than the song I heard, upon first meet.
Long looks denoted the depths therein,
of times before when we began.

Others may scoff at what I say,
but to them I say, you will rue the day.
For the unknown is known to very few,
and they are the ones that do pursue.
To uncover the feelings that surface at times,
maybe only coming in simple rhymes.

Simple is complex if you look that way,
or complex is simple in a final say.
But you would know of what I believe,
for what is there is easy to conceive.
So trust the wind when it does seek,
in a gentle feel to touch your cheek.

Dear Logan, every word has been selected and planted, expertly, in the exact place where it belongs in this piece.  
What can I say?  I know....I understand.
"So trust the wind when it does seek,
in a gentle feel to touch your cheek."
Thank you for this one, gentle man..soft smile and a hug.

Logan~
You're wonderful, you know ?

Simple is complex if you look that way,
or complex is simple in a final say.
But you would know of what I believe,
for what is there is easy to conceive.
So trust the wind when it does seek,
in a gentle feel to touch your cheek.


And the circle runs round~
You inspire the fire~
Love ya'

I like this one much, my friend.  The wind speaks volumes if only we take the time to listen.

by the grace of God.
