NIGHT WIND

Distressful notes of pain
Strained with tears of plight
Echo through the silent night 
Filling the empty spaces in my heart.

Like a tribute song at a funeral 
The notes constantly rise and fall.  
Like spaces in a poem and dots in prose
The wind stammers hope to my heart.

Amidst my pain from the sudden loss 
I still sense the night wind urging a pause  
To my worries and troubled beating 
Of a heart shattered beyond repair.

The night wind whispers hope  
To a heart drowning.  
Leaves and wings play rhapsodies  
Of the end and start of past stories.
