And the Wind Will Whisper Your Name to Me

A poem and a song

By Rasma RaistersPublished 5 months ago • 2 min read

I often seek the wisdom,

that I’m looking for,

in the clouds which form,

high in the sky above.

As the wind blew about me,

I thought I heard it whisper your name,

it might have only seemed so,

but I think the wind holds many mysteries.

I often wonder,

if those who’ve passed on,

can hear my thoughts -

when I think of them.

So I pray to the Lord,

to help me understand,

the wisdom of the heavens

and the far reaching sky.

Because the answers of the ages,

lie in the secrets hidden for centuries,

but I am confident -

that there is another world which we cannot see.

There is no key to that door,

for it is the threshold to another dimension,

but we can try to understand -

as long as we hold our dear ones in our hearts.

Ever so gently,

a voice would say to me,

the wind listen to the wind

and you will hear what you seek.

Look up above,

see the cloud formations,

they are messages in themselves -

telling you so very much.

Then as in a miracle,

I listened ever so closely,

to the wind as it blew by

and I heard your name whispered in my ear.

I knew as I’ve been told before.

this is a way for our thoughts to pass from one to another

and your name sounded so wonderful

and love filled my heart in remembrance of you.

I looked up into the sky

and spoke to the Lord.

I told Him that I understood now

and that it was good to know.

Good to know that the wind,

could whisper and let me know I’m never alone,

passing along the messages my loved ones,

wish to send to me.

There are miracles,

which we as yet don’t understand,

but I know that the wind,

holds many secrets as yet untold.

So I thank you Lord,

for being there to hear me

and for letting me know -

that my loved ones are near.

Many a starry night,

I will hold your memory,

so dear in my heart

and wait for the wind to whisper your name.
