Music on the Wind before cultural moves 'neath horses hooves before skylight buildings and transplanted roots seasons changed winds rearranged through lilies gilding the wind was music's flute grasses lean 'neath howling wind talking to my spirits' kin before stone and brick and people thick before other sounds there was the raw the prairie knew when the wind flew through life unbound giving nature awe passions of ancient people roar we can never go as before March roars in flight so fine music resounding leonine as spirits roam ancestral homes raw the cold wind blows only the bare trees know might the lamb be found in the prairie's sound seek thee solace that winds caress only through civilized kiss 'tho the raw is sorely missed chimes ring in the music's wind still leaves one's soul searching listen to the music's wind |

"The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind." She whispers, she howls, we need only listen. Great read, Sunshine. "The poet is the priest of the invisible." |

My friend~ You would already know that this one has blown into my heart with inspiration~ On fluted edges of the wind comes the voice of ancestral friend~ Notes held tightly in fisted glove released upon rememberance of peace and love~ Blessings from your pen - fall upon my heart. *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

All answers are but spirils of the wind! Bless you sweet spirit, may you never cease to hear the love within the whispers of the wind, for therein lies the answers! Oh! Did I say I loved this? |

I can't add anything more to the replies other than bowing low in humble praise before you the "M.E." *S* |
