A timely challenge:
When the wind whispered its words over the weeping willows, my mind was filled with the wonder of it all, as the hawk flew away on graceful wings. I did not weep. I felt joy.....M
WHEN I CAN'T SLEEP I LISTEN
FOR THE WHISPER OF THE WIND
A SOUND LIKE WINGS OVER WATER
BRINGS HIS WORDS...DON'T WEEP
IN THE END
THE WONDER OF ETERNAL LIFE...WAITS
THANKS FOR SHARING. I GUESS IT CAME EASY BECAUSE IT'S THE TRUTH. OTHERWISE IF I'M NOT SLEEPY I STAY AWAKE, DRINK COFFEE AND WRITE OR DRAW. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
Regis, very powerful. Demonstrates the old saying "short and sweet" is sometimes the best. Amazing how such few words can indeed elicit emotional response. Quality over quantity.

PS And to boot, it didn't make one go pee like the challenge one I did a while back, ha!
Wonder is a miraculous thing. We are surrounded by wonder. The wonder you express in this poem is a moment of time captured in the wonder of nature. Nicely expressed, Regis. Short, effective, and to the point.
Regis you met the challenge with emotions captured in a compact descriptive rendering. Thank you for sharing with us. May peace and love be always with you. Jon Michael
