.............Comes a Calling .........
Can
you feel me she whispered , for i have been waiting for you .Stirred by
the wind lost in memory he gazed into the wind , sure he heard
something .Come closer the voice calls , feel me as never before , for i
wait , Turning his back to the wind he listens , sure he is hearing
things .He shivers as the wind almost seems to tug at him , the seasons
had passed so quickly and now the temptress was back in all her fury
.Closing his eyes his mind played back a memory from a long time ago
.Come here she called , you have to feel this , she stood facing the wind , she always loved it's fury .She was never far from
him even though she had been gone for a few years . The wind came
stronger and as much as he didn't he knew he had to face it , no way
around it so head on .Why do you make me wait , don't you remember ? the
wind whispered .Looking now into the wind as it swirled the snow till
all he saw was white , and amidst it he thought he saw her , beckoning
him as never before .Closing his eyes he saw her there , that smile and
outreached hand calling , Come to me .If anyone had seen him standing
out there in that storm they would have thought he had lost his mind ,
but today there was no one but him and her as she beckoned him to cross
over .The years had been hard and his body had slowed down .He hadn't
known why he had ventured out other then it felt right , today was a
different day .So there he stood , staring at a face no one could see
but him , and as he stepped towards it the wind rushed in as if to catch
him ..The winter storm lasted a few days and once it left there was a
deep blanket of snow , He had found her and she had caught him as he
fell , and there he remained , hidden under her blanket ,lost in warm
embrace as the wind whispered there names ,
