Therese Gramercy . . . the girl named Trees

Winter Sky

Wind

The sky stretches its clear blue scarf overhead,
the sun casts its blue shadows on the white frozen land,
the north wind is whistling, I hear it whispering to me,
I feel its chill on my lips as it whips through the trees.

I thought I was imagining things, but I just heard it again,
the wind whispered your name, surely as songbirds do sing,
and as I looked skyward to where the wind turned my head,
the sun dazzled a ribbon of light down the pathway you left.
