Whispering Wind

I hear the wind whistling in the trees

Rustic sounds of rustling leaves

Swirling down through the branches

Prancing colourful dancers

Faery’s of the forest floor

Mother nature’s spiritual encores

 

I hear the wind applause for more

Seasonal breezes carrying pollen spores

Germinating ancient lands over the eons

Eden’s garden of blossom and vines

Serving our tables full of apples and wines

I hear the wind whispering memories and rhymes

G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer. I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.

    1. Thank you ❤️ Ellen, I wrote the poem after we had a windy evening 2 evenings ago, and I could hear the the sounds in the trees, and then I knew about the music and it, seemed a lovely choice for my words, especially with Irish folklore stories about Faeries. 😊 Xxxx

  7. Speaking as an Ainsel (a fairy girl in Northern England) I enjoyed your poem very much. You chose well with the picture and I’m sure I can see some of my faraway relatives dancing around in there!

    You’ve been quiet for a few days and I was beginning to feel worried. I was going to send you a message this morning if there was nothing here to wake up to, but here you are 🙂
    I’m glad the computer is due back today, must be a big relief for you. xx

  10. Wonderful!
    Perfect photo and music for your poem! The music was so peaceful and beautiful!
    Your poem is very magical, light, airy, sigh-worthy, imagination inducing, etc!
    The wind works so hard and plays such interesting “songs”. We had a breezy day here, so I said “Hey” to the wind. 🙂
    When will your computer be fixed? Hope soon!
    HUGS!!! 🙂
