The Wind's Soul
The wind once whispered a calming song
Describing the importance of every second that ticks away
It spreads a tale all over the world
Yet, some notice that lovely rhyme
It is so harmonious that it has so many doves
Accompanying it wherever it flew
For it adored the beautiful rhyme
Kids run along and play with it
Chuckling and laughing so loud
But, as they grew up, they simply forgot
About the grateful friend they had
They drifted to work and never had the time
To rest and listen to its song
It waited for someone to come and play
But they never appeared
It got so sad and lonely
That blisters approached
And tears dropped from the sky up high
One day, the wind heard a chuckle
And a voice that called from down below
Quickly, it flew to observe and discover
The source of that pure voice
At the front door of a house
A kid stood waving at the wind
Inviting it to play with him
A smile appeared on the wind's face
As its song played so loud
And the life of happiness filled it again
It met new friends that adored to play
But, it was afraid it'll lose them again
So, they carved on a tree
Their names so clearly
So that they'll never forget
The times they spent
Playing in the open field...
