~From my journal – VW – June 11, 2008~
A tribute to Virginia Woolf - I'll remember her always. She was bigger than life, and only a moment in time separated her life from death. She takes wing, and lives.
Quietly, softly, pulses the air
I hear it, I feel it
Knowing you are there
In a whisper, in a sigh
In the wind, I hear you cry
In a song, in a breeze
In my arms, you are free
Quietly, softly, you swim out alone
You stagger, you fall
Moments have flown
I hold you in the air
You go, you are there
To be young, to be old
We are two, it is cold
Quietly, softly, you breathe not a word
You sleep, you dream
Murmurs are heard
Catching the wind, and capture the crests
Sealed to its folds, as nurturing breasts
Fly away fast
Fly away now
Fly to the air
To be found
Somehow
Somehow
Winds will whisper
Your name will sing
Then sail away
On a gulls white wing
I love the rhythm of this one!
