THE NIGHT WIND

THE NIGHT WIND

The windows is open the curtain blows

As I sit with my hands on the keys

A haunting feeling  fills my soul

As I listen to the crackling of trees

The rain plays a song as it taps on my window

There's a tornado watch and a storm

My shoulders are crunched, my fingers are numb

Waiting for the words of my heart to form

My wait seems so endless no words seem to flow

From my heart or even my mind

It's time for a break my body I'll take

By the fire where some warmth I will find

This cold dreary night brings a chill to my bones

As an end comes to the month of September

So I'll sip on some wine, let my memory unwind

With lovely days gone by to remember

The night wind  breathes with billowing force

And the rain  continues to be

But the peace that I find by the fire with wine

Calms the storm that's  brewing in me!!!
