Whispering Prate

 

♡♥♡

 

Like psithurism,

 

Embued with the essence of me,

 

Wading the darkside's rivers whistling a tune,

 

Wishing and hoping for some 

 

Small twinge of logic

 

To seep through these long branches.

 

◆◆◆◆

 

Weathered, 

 

Through winter storms 

 

And hot, blistering summer droughts,

 

And yet, 

 

Just like a willow,

 

◆◆◆◆

 

You have learned the dance,

 

Even when the dance tried to swallow you.

 

And I promise this time

 

I will try harder not to step on toes,

 

Or barrell down false pride

 

Without leaving cover or batting down hatches.

 

◆◆◆◆

 

Because I learned that when the wind

 

Hits the trees,

 

There is only one sound it can make

 

To ears that cannot hear,

 

Ears that refuse to listen,

 

To the words.

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
