     I meander past 
                  a rippling stream
    my hair blowing
                      in the whirling wind
       pausing ...
                  is that my name
                            being whispered
          in the tangled trees
                   I swirl
                          twirl to bird songs
      my name just a fading 
                        haunting echo
                    then only silence sighs
       in the trees
