Everywhere

Can you hear the wind?
the sound of poetry
everywhere a story
your life and mine.

Basket man in parking lot
holding a sign and his story
it says of him
a story he wishes to tell.

Wind on the beach
carrying wishes and prayers
if you just stop
and listen.

All around us is poetry
a story
waiting to be told
of desires and dreams.

I really like this. My only objection. It needs to be longer. I wanted to hear more and more!!! Is it for that one contest about the birth of poetry? Should do nicely!
