"Listen To The Wind" Poetry Contest

Listen To The Wind

L isten closely to the wind's softest hum
I t gently caresses and touches my hair,
S weet scent of jasmine it brings from afar 
T ogether with ambrosial fragrance of roses,
E very sense-bud in my body feels serene
N ot a single feeling forgetfully untouched.

T antalize my soul, hypnotize my heart
O soothing wind, you make me yearn for days gone by!

T rue emotions sway through reminiscences,
H eal pain and sadness magically, calm
E very chord of an aching hurting soul.

W ind, you whisper and murmur a tale so poignant
I n harmony with a river's rippling sound,
N ostalgia envelopes my total existence
D ive with an ardour into retrospection.

Soft and nostalgic, this poem lets the wind carry fragrance, memory, and emotion, weaving serenity with longing, and turning reflection into gentle healing.
