I Hear A Call Poem by Barry Middleton

I Hear A Call

Rating: 4.8


I hear a whispered call.
The winter rain must fall
to chill the naked soul.

Regret is in the wind,
for grief cannot suspend
or heal the pain of life.

The words I could not say,
the secrets locked away,
return in foggy dreams.

I feel my pulse retreat.
A prayer fails to entreat
aloof infinity.

So silently I wait,
beside a bitter gate,
till sorrow finally rests.
