Mood Music
The Wind Changes
  
The thunder of an empty sky,
Sent my heart racing back,
To find your open arms,
And found only a memory.
The lightning came late,
But did not linger in the air.
It barely lit the ground,
Below my feet where I would walk.

The air is calm now.
There is no excitement left,
In the retreating storm,
No music left in the rain.

The wind changes....
And the breeze threatens,
To lift me from the ground.
I hold my breath in fear.

Through the steady beat,
Of the pouring rain,
I hear voices call my name
They whisper into the air,
"Fly once more around the night.
There is yet another moon to find.
You are not alone, you are light,
And someone waits for you to shine".


Sherry Gardner

        
Cherish the good memories of the past and look forward to the adventure called Tomorrow. But above all... be kind to yourself today.

Sherry~
Oh my, how elegantly touching~

This is such a compliment to even think that something I wrote would inspire someone to reach within and pen as touching as this~

"Fly once more around the night.
There is yet another moon to find.
You are not alone, you are light,
And someone waits for you to shine".


Yes, you have felt the Wind Weep ... and written it so well~
Thank you~

Sherry, I hope this is not just a teaser! Please say you are back with us to stay! I felt the beauty of your words in my very soul. You have been sorely missed, dear friend!

Loving hugs,
Linda

Thank you Marge, you must know the truth, I wrote this originally about 13 years ago but when i read your poem, it was the first thing I thought of.  They seemed to go together.

Hi, Nancy, thank you, I miss you too, I don't know how long I will be lingering here... looking for a job is a full time job.  

Hello, Linda, I miss this place too and I have been trying to get in here more often.  Thank you for your heartfelt comments.  

With friends like you all, How could I stay away?!?!?

Love you all,

Sherry
