Where Have You Gone?
Darling one where have you gone?
My husband, lover, brother, son.
Across the seas for glory bound?
To fight, find honor, fortune found?
A letter arrived special post today
In it they mentioned your name
So I called to you in my spirit voice:
Darling one, where have you gone?
Your spirit voice answered shhhhhh
A long sigh and swish in the trees,
A breeze, a light nudge on my shoulders
The wisp of a touch, the hint of smoke in the leaves
And trail dust curling up to redden my eyes
Is how your spirit voice answered me.
