Sometimes, the promises would linger on the wind
To captivate me more than lover's lips
And rise me to my feet in trail of whispers

Never was I leaving, only going to the prism's ebb
A calling of my own to drive in single destination
To find the hollow where my heart would rest

Sometimes, the wind to softly knock upon my heart's door
And to the woods I travel, and to the trees I pray
For I will never be apart from what of you shares me

Never was I leaving, only going to the prism's ebb

Once Lost,
now found
and kept...
prisms and all...

Ahhhhh.. Nice poem..  I enjoyed the read.. Thankyou for sharing.

I wish to become a great poet some day, but it will only come in time. Til then, I shall write my poems, and wait.

gentle touch of the wind as it seems to speak to us in truths we may not have realized before,
this was whimsical and enchanting

Neat touch of what the breeze can bring...if I may make a suggestion your third stanza might be better with a would rather than to in the first line to give action to the line and replicate the opening line of the poem as well, indirectly..just an idea
