The wind tasted the sky and lured the rain
She stood at the balcony, staring at the distance in vain
Will he ever return, ever come home to her
The tears, She calls his name but in a whisper
All the plans, the time shared made her reminise
The taste of his lips, all that gave her peace
All her thoughts, the silence broken with a door knock
She opened ‘we re sorry…..hard luck’
It wasn’t the flag that made her cry
It wasn’t the manner he died, the reasons why
‘How could Bill have made me wait?’
She sank to the floor, 1st september, a horrible date
The mass funeral, tears fell freely down her face
His friend, Harry, stood in place
Soft words to comfort her broken spirit
A warm hug to mend her heart bit by bit
It was no secret, they soon had it going
Making love, lots of love showing
His lips quenched her thirst, his body gave her pleasure
Her beauty shone, She was his treasure
The wind tasted the cloud, lured a thunderstorm
She stood at the balcony, watching him wear his uniform
‘I ll be back to give my child a name’
She smiled ‘Please, without you it won’t be the same’
He did return, they kissed at the harbour
He was there, She had an easy labour
A baby girl, the product of their love
Beautiful, a gift from above
CNN Live: A small boat and body washed ashore the coast of Japan
It still had breathe in it, he was an American
He simply kept saying ‘wanna go home to Beatrice
Home to my love, I made her a promise!’

Real and nice. Tale of love with a good touch of pain.
The last verse seemed to me a bit disjointed… It makes sense but I can’t seem to relate it with the preceding one.
Good job though, @brytandre
