Melody Of The Wind

Category: Poetry Corner

I look up at the large clouds floating along the sapphire blue sky
Sighing, I lie down on the vast lawn of fragrant emerald green grass

Taking in all the lives revolving on this planet Earth
As the wind blow whispering its everlasting melody around this place where I am at

The pure gleaming white clouds above shift their shapes little by little
And suddenly I realize...

As if life is revealing itself right in front of my very eyes
Just like those clouds, we unknowingly become like this in the wake of time
Each of us taking our own shapes amidst the blowing winds of destiny

Smilingly, I’m grateful to know
It’s alright for me to cry sadly and happily for no reason at all, alone on this lonely hill
Just like the old-time luxury of crying sadly and happily for no reason, alone atop the roof

The wind’s song will gently wipe my tears and carry them away
To the very end of the sky

...To the very end of the sky…
