Amongst Hollowed Out Trees

Dreamt I heard your screams within hollowed out trees
Wind shifted direction with tickle of a sneeze
Thought I heard you whisper with the warm gentle breeze
Suddenly was strong enough to get up off my knees
Found myself chasing whimsical dancing leaves 
Floating to a creek bed where tranquil waters have yet to seize
Radiating sun reflecting rippled clouds mind is set at ease
Attention gravitated toward the song of sweet playful chickadees
Your name trapped on my tongue with most tasteful of memories
For brief moment heart sways to echoes of long lost melodies
