In this healing wind <br />all our scars of the <br />past are blown away, <br />torn away and scattered <br />around the earth, <br />and all our demons are <br />lifted and carried off <br />in the vortex of <br />the wind funnel <br />till there is nothing <br />left but these rocks <br />and the ocean, <br />and our hearts feel <br />at peace once more, <br />as our eyes <br />scan the distant horizon, <br />where the ocean <br />meets the night sky, <br />where the moon <br />hangs low, casting <br />its tremulous glow <br />upon the water. <br /> <br />In this healing wind <br />all our thoughts <br />are scattered in the <br />silent multitude of stars <br />that shine upon us <br />like new blossoms… <br />yes, I know we've been <br />through a lot <br />all these years, <br />and the loneliness <br />and the pain <br />seemed unbearable <br />at times, <br />but you don't have <br />to say a thing to me <br />right now, <br />because the healing wind <br />turned it all around, <br />gave us new hope <br />and new purpose <br />and new sails- <br />and breathing in <br />this cool night air, <br />we feel renewed <br />and alive again, <br />as we return <br />to what we always <br />knew as our home, <br />resting upon these <br />rocks, as the ocean <br />waves gently baptize <br />our feet.<br /><br />Alexander Shaumyan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-healing-wind/
