Notes About The Poem

Inspired by but not entered in the contest, Listen to the Wind (2025), sponsored by Constance la France 

Listen to the Wind

Listen to the wind as it shares its journey from Puget Sound to Alderny. It brings the sound of whispering woods and beauties in their knitted hoods. Who and what the blowing brings, all is told with wings and rings. Listen to the wind as it leaves its home and winds its way to freedom roam. Bones of broken mysteries buried away in fading histories. Never heard outside one’s tribe, as all the bad we try to hide. Listen to the wind as it sings its song of good and righteous, evil and wrong. It makes its way from here to yon without a care for now or anon. Objective in its path from here and now, to nearly there. Listen to the wind.
