A Voice In The Breeze

Everyday i hear the same voice as it calls out to me

It always asks if i will sit with a friend under an old oak tree

I hear the voice as i sit and ponder over the meaning of life and ask what is it truly about

The answer i find is that we are born and we live on until the day we pass on, in these two things there is no doubt

When we leave this earth, the ones who suffer the most are the ones we leave behind

The heartache and memories that we leave loved ones with are never easily confined

I hear the breeze speak of a brighter future where all the pain will one day heal

It speaks of a time when all my tears and heartache will one day be easier to conceal

I hear the words of guidance and hope as the breeze speaks today

The breeze in all his wisdom has given me comfort and taken my grief away

The voice of my friend called out to me when on this day the breeze had blown

Under this old oak tree, i heard the letters of his name speak as the breeze passed over his headstone
