The wind


The wind came and whispered to me “Wont you come along?” “No” I said very loud and clear This is where I belong. He was amazed and muttered angrily “Wont you go and play?” I drowned my pain in laughter and said “I have no more dolls of clay”. “No longer a little girl, you see Into a woman I have grown. How dare you ask me to roam and play Blow away now, all alone.” With dampened hope the wind blew away To a place where my spirit lies Where I played all day with friends and foes Under the clear blue skies. With an ocean twirling in my eyes I sing a lullaby To the child on my lap who lay The strongest ever tie. “Hush my baby, go to sleep. Keep your fears at bay The winds’ gone forever now, I have send him far away”.
