Winds Blowing

This is written with my grandfather in thought, who died in 2002.
The biggest and best male influence in my life.
The best man I ever knew.
The only father I ever knew.

Winds blowing
I hear whispers in the wind
Moon is eluminating
Casting shadows about below it
I feel a chill around me
But the air is warm
Something evades me
My eyes are hazy
What am I missing


Winds blowing
I hear my name
whispered by the wind
It's softly spoken
I feel a presence
An answer to the chills


Winds blowing
I hear my name on his lips
A lasting impression in my mind
Yet he eludes me
No form in the moons shadows


Winds blowing
There's stiring all around me
I search in the haze for a face
A Form to fit the
Ever feeling presence
It still eludes me


Gentle breezes
Is all that's left
The whispers have vanished
Gone with the wind
Leaving no more shadows
Impressions are all that is left

For a while after my grandps died I could feel his presence and lovely smell too. The one day it just flew away, as if to say goodbye.

I am happy that atleast one man has left a great indentation on your life, that holds you in good stead.

Eluding and shadows with the gentle warmth must comfort you oftentimes.

A great poem of gratitude for one who loved you so...
