Listen

by Ken Alvey - Leo

Can you hear the wind
It calls each of us only once.
Listen again
Listen…
Be still once more
There it is 
You can barely hear it
But it calls us
Chances lost
Time is past
Will I hear it ever again
No, the time has past
The wind always moves
Never ending
Always changing
The wind is different now
Slower, calmer, almost dead
Just as we become
Listen again
Listen…
