Where Time’s Winds Blow
(A poem inspired by the Reunion Duology)
Where time’s winds blow
That’s where you are;
Your bright eyes glow
Like distant stars.
I call your name
And there you are;
In time’s freeze frame
Caught from afar.
Where time’s winds blow
Things cannot last;
We come and we go
Like ships that pass.
Love’s not always sweet, nor is it just “tomorrows”
It has sharp edges, barbs, and is full of sorrows;
Yet we must love, and face the storm
When time’s winds blow…..
Where time’s winds blow
That’s where you’ll be;
Where love’s fires glow
Your smile I’ll see.
Across the stars
Across the sea;
Where time’s winds blow
Our hearts will be.
A Certain Point of View, Too

Thanks, Thomas. I used parts of it as the “song” in a dream sequence I wrote in “Reunion: A Story.”
I’m glad you liked it.

I wrote it many moons ago as a “song” that the narrator-protagonist of my novella, Reunion: A Story, hears in a dream sequence. I really wanted to use the lyrics to “This Night” by Billy Joel, but I couldn’t afford the licensing fee to do so. So I listened to the melody of Michel Legrand’s Theme from Summer of ’42 (The Summer Knows) whilst I wrote the first stanzas of the poem. In some places, the poem’s rhythm matches the music…but not in others.
