Listen (Free verse) by storyspinner
In the sound of the wind
I hear whispering
Long silent howls of dispair
Borne on gossamer ribbons
Through the air
In the sound of the night
I hear screaming
Dreaming cries of loneliness
Drifting on fragile wings
To nothingness
In the sound of the stars
I hear anger
Great wrenching tears of rage
Sliding on silvery strands
Through my gilded cage
In the sound of the wind
I hear forever
Hope buried deep within
Floating softly on angel wings
High above life's din
In the sound of the night
I hear laughter
Dancing through all the tears
Bringing life so softly now
To all listening here
In the sound of the stars
I hear living
All the sorrow and all the pain
Seeking to be the shelter
For all lost in the rain
In the sound of the wind
I hear tomorrow
Dreams borne aloft through the sky
Whispers of forever keep calling
It matters not the how or the why
It only matters that we listen
