Murmur of the Wind
she feels cold, chilled,
as though an icy frost
has blanketed her..
it is mid summer
the sun is scorching
vibrant hues of orange..
yet she feels numb
her pain is not visible
to the naked eye..
she is silent, without words
all she hears is her own murmur
unaudible sounds; they frighten her..
the flapping wings of a crow
startle her, it's massive black wings
seemingly come straight at her..
the lull of the waves soothes her
she feels safe, cocooned, mesmerized
by the vastness of the sparkling ocean..
it is at this moment
she feels a strength from within
a murmur in her soul speaking to her..
guiding her, comforting her
letting her know she is not alone
as the wind sings a melodic tune..
she feels a comfort she thought long lost,
never to be felt again
while the murmur of the wind sings to her..
as the chill slowly subsides
a flock of snow white geese
dance gracefully in the rays of the sun..
she feels a warmth from within
as she giggles at the tickling
of the sand squishing between her toes..
where darkness once lived
she now sees a glimmer of light
from the sky, ocean and murmur of the wind..
she laughs and gleefully shouts
"i will be ok", i am but a mere speck of sand
tenderly guided by; the murmur of the wind.
