Through the Pines

At night the wind blows

through the pines

insane from the pain

he hears it call out

to him



He traverse’s where no one knows

travels his mind

trying in vain

to loose doubt

and grim



Hopes someday he begins to let go

surmise’s in time

he’ll live again

with or without

his vim



The rain has changed to soft white snow

seems his ryhme

changed like rain

made him shout

memory swim



For the pines still remind

this long lost soul

no escape the pain

no where to go

life grows dim

when love

rains on

your fire

Dennis, I liked this one very much.
What is it about the wind, the trees, love not gone right? I have some similar to this.
With each tiny breeze,
the pines whisper your name.

The more I read, the more I enjoy. Pretty soon I see, I wll have to put you on my list of avorites!
Keep up the good work.
