Beyond My Window
There is a silence beyond my window;
though the wind is a low desolate moan;
with dark clouds heavy with ominous rain;
and now there is a howl like a voice forlorn.
~ My purple curtains flutter and billow;
oh, this dismal day makes me feel alone;
and I am reminded of my past pain;
for though it has been years now ... I still mourn. ~
Like the threatening rain that is in limbo;
I close my eyes and see all the names in stone;
and stand weeping- wind a violin strain;
like a love symphony that makes me yearn.
~ The wind and clouds crash and rain is falling
and beyond my window it is pouring ~
