Melancholy Song Poem by Smoky Hoss

Being made in God's image
has implications.
Living here, looking There
brings about precarious, melancholy situations.

There's a sad song singing
In the soul of the wind,
And yet a joyful wind blowing
Through every soul's song.
It never stays
And it never goes,
Calling our hearts onward
To wherever it flows.
It's a song of sadness
And of good cheer,
A song of great warmth
And no small fear.
The song of the masses
And the song of one,
The sound of breaking darkness in the night
And the music of the rising sun.
It's the melancholy in me
And great joy,
It's the deep desire to stay,
And yet homeward go.
I know this song
And the tears it brings,
I hear this song
in my heart, it always sings.
I feel the lonely
but, not alone,
memories remain
calling us Home.
