WindSong Sweet, cool, dew covered grass 'neath my feet I stand under the soft silvery glow of moonlight The warm summer air begins to gently stir As I turn my eyes upward to the velvet sky of midnight. A slow, warm breeze pours out of the West And caresses my face with tender care Singing tales of lands so far away Into my eagerly attentive ear. Stories of heroes and champions mighty Of Kings and Queens long lost in time Ballads of honor and courage and love Beautifully set to the sweet wind's rhyme. I close my eyes and listen to the whispers Carried my way on winds so strong They outlast time itself and bring The beauty of the never ending WindSong. ~you reached inside, you touched my heart, and I am all the better for it~ Terry A. Woodson, Jr. |
