This is strange but true..it has been around 95 degrees here for a week, and this morning (and still) the wind started howling, and it became quite cold. Coincidence? A cold wind blows through town tonight as though nature can feel our tears it blows ferociously in gusts in memory of pain last year. So much has changed since that days fate our hearts, our souls, our very thoughts a devastation never known a cruelty we've not yet forgot. I cried that day for all we lost again today the tears do fall and while the wind howls of our loss I only pray, God bless us all. |

CatalinaMoon~ I 'know' just what you mean ... Today, in my Florida neck of the wooods, we awoke to gray skies that never let a ray of sunshine come through~ There were a smattering of 'angel-tears' throughout the day ...  Then ... just before night fell ... a soft glow of crimson briefly touched the clouds ... promising a hopeful tomorrow~  Beautifully felt write dear lady~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

A year ago, it was an ill wind that blew. Hopefully this one was friendlier. Very nice, Sandra  |

..."the wind howls of our loss"---so aptly put. Conveys so much. A soulful piece of writing. Earth Angel |

On the TV the commentators talked of the wind at Ground Zero and showed the dust blowing skyward. I believe souls are still be taken to Heaven and evil is continually being blown away. Thank you for noticing the Hand of God yesterday and writing about it. Hugs, Marti Every now and then take a good look at something not made |

September's wind cries for its loss, and for ours. Thank you. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |
