I  Send My Whisper on The Wings of a Crow

By: Felix L. Perry

I look now to the West across the twists of time

Where the barriers fall slowly only to redefine

Hoe I gaze on waves caressing seashore sand

Imagined a rippled lake somewhere overland

Have held in my arms a fragile new born baby

Met and fell in love with a cuddlesome lady

I have did my duty when I was called to arms

Felt defeat and victory both debts and charms

Broke hearts and had mine broke a time or two

Love can be fickle I learned this to be often true

Now clouds move north; as the sun moves west

Heart yearns to be sated but…nay, it may not rest

Sang your name on wings of a low flying crow

Envied his wings wishing I too could freely go

Now alone I await the raucous call of his return

Sweet shadowed dream of love for thee I yearn…
