A Whisper On The Wind

Tonight, too cold to sleep, I lie beneath
a sky set deep with stars. The ground is damp
and chills my skin. I think of other nights
and you beside me like a promise, like
a dream that never needed waking. Love
was easy then, and nights like this were few.

I think of you now, a whisper
carried by the wind to haunt me.

Rebecca~
There is a wistful sadness about this beautiful, but sad, penning~

It's truly from the heart~

~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost,
the spirit rejoices over what it has left.

it is an older poem....one that was meant to be the start of a longer piece but I suddenly realized it is complete as it is.Marge, how nice to see your name again...I have been away much too long! And truly, I believe everything I write is absolutely from my heart
