Petition To the Wind

Listen to the breeze You shall hear my distant call Way away from where you belong. You will hear my plea My calling and crying Because my big heart is breaking. Watch the running streams As they trickle down from the heights They come from my eyes. I have been fouled and forsaken Mistreated and wasted Left bare to wear and erode. In my solemn time A thousand wishes dance around me Dreams of a time to be held Comforted and cared for Like a calf that has lost it’s herd I send my petition with the wind. Listen to the wind again Can you hear me ? Are you out there ? Come to my aid Turn my crying and pleas Into tuneful and sweet melody
