As the Wind Blows

As the wind blows

The sunshade creaks

And windchimes discordantly speak.

Who knows

Where all this goes

When I sleep.

Temporary

The ageless wind

In these waving trees

Whispers to me

Of eternity.

 

Passing by a lorry

I smile

At that metal thing.

So temporary.

While the wild wind

Is forever free.

Fleeting

Traffic goes by

It’s sound amplified by rain.

A plane flies

In the summer sky

And birds sing.

While I compose my poetry

Touching on eternity

And the fleeting spring.

In the Autumn Wood

Alone, I walk the woodland path.

No one with whom to laugh

While in the endless sky

A plane goes by

As I dwell on love.

 

 

But birds still sing

In autumn and spring,

And I have this wood

And the autumn sun.

Eternity

On my walks
I often find
That inner talk
Distracts my mind.

Then, the breeze
Rustles Autumn leaves
Reminding me
Of eternity.

Eternity

Shall I intrude
Into their quietude?
The wind sings
As I,
Alone
Pass by
Gravestone.

Time has stopped,
For those below.
I have the clock
And somewhere to go.
But the wind sings
Softly to me
In the churchyard tree.

I Hear The Rain

I hear the rain, again.
How it does pour,
Over city street, and moor
When I go my way,
The rain will stay.
But others will remain,
Listening to the rain.
