The wind blows a sorrowful tune

Flowers dancing on a painful heart

Sandy roads fogging in my hurting dune

I sit in the meadow looking at my low chart


My soul echoes in the sorrowful rain of the meadow

Wind blows a painful ring

Bells echo in the pain and snow

Funeral bells ring in the singing


Wind carries my sorrow in the clouds

Rain falls on my face, crying with my pain

Thunder echoes my screams at the shrouds

My heart is sealed in my painful chains


Chains of grief hold my soul.

My heart mourns my grandfather.


The author's comments:

This is about the year 2022, when my grandfather died. It was hard and lonely, and the poem is about how my heart felt at that time.
