Debra Squyres Poet Free verse

Morning's Releasing

Into the wind
the heart speaks
the words
that stay hidden
from all others.
Joining with them
the heart spent
words spoken by
sisters and brothers.

The leaves of the trees
seem to gather, 
with ease,
every heart-spent phrase.
Waving them each
to the heavens
in turn
then releasing
them in the breeze.

Robert Johnson August 12, 2013 at 4:09 PM The breeze in the trees seem to whisper Louise. :) The language of nature speaks in spiritual tounge. A new born heart will always feel young. And the heavens will open to shine down it's light. Each morning when God's hand make's everything right. So good to hear from you again Debra. Hope the vacation was all you needed it to be. Peace. :)
