Melody in the Wind's Lament In twilight's sigh, where shadows creep, Beneath the moon's soft light, I keep. I am the echo in the silent stream, A fleeting vision in your dream. I am the rose, with petals pale, That whispers secrets in the gale. In every tear that softly falls, In whispered sighs within stone walls. I am the melody in the wind's lament, The fading hue when day is spent. A wistful glance in lover's eyes, A tear that falls from winter skies. Though time may pass and seasons fly, In memories, I'll never die. So, do not weep or say goodbye, For in your heart, forever I lie. Creative process and inspiration: The style of the poem was inspired by Emily Dickinson. I imagined I died but the one who loves me is left behind to grieve my absence. I am comforting him... that in spirit I'll always be with him. The cover art was inspired by Salvador Dalí's painting: Rose The title of my cover art is Desolate Rose. I'll let the viewer interpret the symbolic meaning and how it relates to the poem.
