The Wind
Wind rustled,
through cattails,
near the pond,
rippling the water.
A peaceful sound,
with aroma unique.
Close your eyes,
enjoy a nap.
You will fall
into a deep sleep.
Retired for many years and now re-discovering some writings, from long ago, along with new endeavor to help save my soul.

He was a
guitar picker,
loving to pick
when drinking liquor.
He became renowned
across the land,
becoming the lead,
in a Rock and Roll band.
She lay abandoned,
like a worn-out shoe.
Alone, was she
being homeless too.
Falling on tough times,
no help, she couldn't do
anything, no family,
who to turn to.
Trying to work.
What address? A few.
Could she use them?
Lord, what shall I do?
What is a loss of life?
The loss of a single life
is insignificant, when compared
to thousands of lives lost during
wars, pestilence or starvation.
Is this the kind of world we
envisioned for our children
and ourselves? I think not,
yet here we are again still
engaging in these actions
due to water, oil, natural gas
or greed.
Indifference becomes intolerable.
When the Sun slips
into the Western Sea,
will my true love
return to me?
These are questions,
I wish to know,
the answer may
come too slow,
I will make
one more call,
to resolve the issue,
once and for all.
The dog ran free,
where he was at,
wanting to chase
his friend the cat
The Sun breaks
through the clouds
of the Eastern sky.
A beautiful sunrise,
brightens the morning
as another day begins.
What lot in life do wishes
which are filled with love,
have in our thoughts remaining
we may thank the one above.
Would I grant a wish
and change your life, a gift,
of love for you without
causing a rift.
For my love is lost on those,
no matter what you believe.
Life will change dramatically
when you start to grieve.
A glimpse of colors,
perhaps torn from a gown,
when I was looking
for clues and I found.
Some piece of material,
a part of a dress shoe,
captured my attention,
as I begin to pursue.
What could have happened,
to result in this, find?
I'll keep on searching,
for I need to know or remind
the others, on this team
about the need. What we must do.
Search extra hard,
to find evidence or a clue.
(to be continued)
A precipitous journey,
strolling in the rain,
and meeting someone you love,
then you will suffer the pain.
Redo your life
by boarding Life's train.
Fall in love once more,
remembering memories again.
Love or hate
is what it will be.
When I love
it will always be thee.
