“Fade”
© 2021 by Michael L. Utley

Dusk has fallen as
Stars scream heavenward and doves
Murmur mournfully
Evening-song has come and I
Cannot hear day’s parting cry

Night blooms above as
Insects whisper mysteries
And wolves share solemn
Oaths on phantom breeze and I
Cannot hear dark’s somber sigh…

  8. Dear Mike, this is a deeply poignant reflection on loss—not only of sound, but of the intimate conversation between the soul and nature. The repetition of “I cannot hear” carries a quiet ache, yet the beauty of your imagery allows the reader to hear what the speaker no longer can. A powerful reminder that even when one sense falls silent, the heart continues to remember. Beautifully written.
