    The Calling....by J.D. Roland


She stands
Against the wind
Waves at furies end
Lapping at her feet

Her hair in keeping
With the gale
Transparent gown billowing
In translucent waves

The sun relinquishes
Its grip at days end
She calls out
I require this void be gone

Finished with her loneliness
She casts out her love
Like fishing net
Strengthened in her longing
Never to return

With sunset reflecting in her eyes
Her bare feet clutching the sand
She challenges the wind
Reaching out with palms extended

Return my love as it is given
Return with last attempt
For I am here
On Donegal Shore

My place of places
My haven heart
My harbinger
Join me to live and love

An empty heart awakes at sunset's end
