~Voice on the Wind

I hear your voice calling through the meadows

         high above the mountain tops as it beckons 

it's elusive yet a clear reminder of all that is sacred

           that has gone before this time and ever shall be

crisp as a bell it echoes the chant of the ages

      winding through sorrow'd winds to be healed,

dances on ether'd clouds like spiritual autumn leaves

     floating gallantly on the wings of all mankind

bringing forth stillness and peace for all who listen

"spiritual autumn leaves" Interesting phrase, Frieda... Whoosh, I love listening to the voice on the wind. :) Hmm, just wondering if you really mean "on the wind" or "in the wind" or "of the wind"? I find prepositions confusing and this is the first time I've read of "on the wind"...

Actually I borrowed it from the music that's playing, first line is "I hear your voice on the wind" I rather liked how it sounded, thanks Blue.

I see there is a resemblance with the song...they are one of my favorites to listen when I write my novel...since one of the main characters uses her ability of song throughout the write...I have looked at the entire manuscript tonight of the book: The Onyx - Vena Amoris...all 277 pages of it from the publisher...I'm beat like a grape being squeezed out for wine...but I wanted to give a few critics tonight...the release is next month...spread the word for me...since my time is not here as much...for now...good night...

Your poetry is superb, as usual:) And I totally adore Celtic Woman! Their music makes me want to visit the emerald hills of Ireland. Thank you for sharing this, Frieda:)

Perhaps the ethereal voice of mother-nature her very self ?

[Frieda P]

If that's what it means to you Tom, sounds good to me. :-)

that call - all I hear is my pounding heart - and that omelette churning in my tummy. But that call oh the way you describe it - it is a balm - a beautiful poem Miss Frieda. You have many voices - equally strong. Some beautiful like this...and some that ache. Some silly and some sublime and that is a very good thing.
