When the Sad Wind Blows

For there are no reasons, it doesn’t matter which season- the breeze r e v o l v e s and twists, and the clouds have all gone grey… since you left me that fateful day. You carry this essence, a mighty GUST that loudly roars- it sounds like pitter-patter, cuz’ when the wind blows... ...the sad rain pours. The storm arrives just as dusk ascends, as OUR white picket fence ghastly bends. A coil of a t o r n a d o, begins to roll in town- it seems to know exactly when you’ll be around. Forgiveness is the key is what the breeze exclaims- but when your wind blows in heat, my heart BURSTS into flames. DEEP in my soul I hold a secret that nobody knows- even during the c a l m e s t climate… ...the sad wind always blows. August 23, 2017

Another very sad one, Laura. So true - the tempest of emotions that rip through you in the presence of the one who used to be so close is keenly felt. I hope you have some happy times ahead! Regards, John.
