Winds Beyond the Gate

It’s the wind that senses and is attuned
to voices that tunnel into its core. 
Light winds speak softly and gently ease
the minds of those who walk thru nature's gate. 
Winds will whisper unit it draws its last breath in.
Echoes will not have life enough to encompass 
those who listen to the transporter of the earth. 

Winds will hold in trust the voices that speak
to it. It will not shed what has been entrusted upon it. 
At times the winds will be hard on the other side 
of the gate, but nature like us  displays  its moods.
Winds cannot be grasped and held onto. It will
evade those who do not lend their ears 
when it  delivers its message  beyond the gate
