The Wind Whispers

by Jes Miller   May 9, 2008


The suns high in the sky,
The leaves above me on the tree shades me,
But to a passer by
They may not even realize I am there,

My gun lies upon my lap,
Waiting for that opportunity to pull the trigger,
My ears are waiting
Waiting to hear that gobble ring in my ears
My eyes wonder far and near,
Waiting to see that black feathered body appear,

The birds chirp
Making sure their voices are heard all throughout
The squirrels scurry around in the dried up leaves from fall,
Filling their cheeks with whatever food they can find,

And I sit there in silence,
Thinking,

Thinking about the future,
Wondering if the man that took my heart over a year ago
Is truly the one,
And if he is,
What our lives would be like together,
Together forever
Together until death

What our children would be like,
Would they be like us
Strong-minded and independent,
Adorable and respectful,
Or would they fall into the wrong group at school
Getting in and out of trouble,

What my wedding will be like
Would my parents cry,
Remembering that just yesterday
It seems I was still asking then to tie my shoes
Would my dress be beautiful enough,
Beautiful enough to take his breath away,
Would it be in the sunset,
Like I have always dreamed
Or would plans change and get married in a church,

All this I wonder,
Yet I have no answers,

Then the wind blows,
Cooling my skin from the sun beating down,
And you can hear a whisper,
A whisper saying slow down
Slow down and enjoy every second
Life seems to be going by faster and faster
Just stop thinking,
Stop wondering,
And just live life.

let me kno what you think..thanks!
