The Whispers in the Wind Poem Verses

As ashes dance on gentle breeze,
I feel the void, the longing seize,
The love we shared, now drifting high,
A whisper in the wind, a mournful sigh.

I miss their touch, their laughter sweet,
The memories shared, our hearts replete,
Yet in the wind, their love remains,
A tender whisper, through joy and pain.

In whispered prayers, I'll find my peace,
A love unbroken, a bond that's ceaseless,
My dear one, forever near,
Whispers in the wind, undying, clear.
