As The Wind Falls Poem by Matthew Collins

As The Wind Falls



As the wind falls from the harrowing sky,
So too does the graceful swallow fly.
With the drop of the Fall rains and snows,
flows the wind of the tranquil forest meadows,
shuddering the green blades awry.

when the quivering children cry,
with the fathers sad goodbye.
while the mother weeps and woes,
as the wind falls.

When the weather goes awry,
And the ancient trees die.
The lightning cracks and glows,
Strobing the pitch-black groves.
As the creatures shelter in reply,
As the wind falls

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I came up with this poem while looking out my car window during the progression into a thunderstorm in the mountains and thought back to when my father would leave for deployment in the navy. I felt this poem to represent the sorrow and stress of life and weather.
