The Soothing Breeze

Grieving is inevitable, It rends your heart It washes away your hurt It fills you with sorrow For all those missed opportunities To tell someone you love them, To hold the hand of a loved one, To share a drink with a friend To let them know you will be there Until the very end. Losing is part of life, It fills you with determination It lets you know where you went wrong It fills you with new purpose To in future make it right. To take that road less travelled To follow the scarier path To back the man of inginuity To try something different and new Until succusses abunantly brew. Sympathy though is appreciated Sometimes comes too late Why not cherrish those you have now Why not give that little bit more now Before the dark cloud of loss arrives. Taking away the one you loved Severing ties you thought were solid Breaking hearts once encased in rock Stunting the will of the intelligent Throwing us all out of our element. And just when we think all is lost The soothing breeze of spring Enters our lives Renewing our faith, and our love And healing, our once broken hearts Giving us time to cherrish Even the rising sun, The pitter patter of feet, The chitter chatter of loved ones, And cleaving to our breasts the battles we have won. The soothing breeze comfort That blows daily in my life Is a soothing balm to my pain Is a calming essence in the face of strife Helps me out weigh my loss with my gain. Lift your face one day, And let it blow through you, Let it fill your lungs, And whisper through your hair, For its the creator's way of saying "I care!"
