The wind grows colder
Winter chills
And on this first night
I seek You
As I always have
Wondering
With my heart and soul
So weary
Of the questioning
Sometimes loud
Sometimes in silence
I just pray
The wind grows colder
Winter chills
Awaiting Your word
Still I pray
What more can be done
I know not
I who have followed
Who believes
Is my faith not true?
Your response
In the deep nothing
Is silence
The wind grows colder
Winter chills
And so does my soul

Playing around, mixing the 5/3/5 and the 3/5/3 versions of the La Lune poetry form.
Raivenne-lations 
This could equally be addressed either to a lover, or to God. Beautiful.
Thanks Bob. Hmm, I hadn’t thought of it from a lover angle, but yes, I can see that now.
The more of these lunes I read, the more I appreciate the versatility of the form. Yours are deeply profound.
Thank you Tony, yes its versatility does lend to some wonder work.
The lune as a prayer, an invocation – that’s something a little different from what others have written, and therefore valuable as a note to the flexibility of the form. Also, an interesting mix of lune variations in this progression.
I had written a Lune before and found it a little easy. This was a little more work combining the variations and still keep a steady flow.
Hmm, there’s a Kelly and a Collom… perhaps a Rai Lune? 😀
I seek You
As I always have
Wondering
With my heart and soul
So weary
Of the questioning….love how the rhythm of these two play together….my fav though is the wind grows colder one as i think it really embodies the form and is so emotive…
I agree the smooth 3/5/3/5/3/5 flow and the unintentional end rhyme of the two tercets really works here. Thanks Brian.
The refraining line of the wind grows colder is very effective ~ I hope that in silence we can hear Him ~ Well done with the form ~
Some can (hear Him). Thanks Grace.
Absolutely beautiful 🙂
Thanks Gretchen.
…The refraining lines work easily and effective with each lunes creating an infinite impact to readers… Wonderful one… Smiles…
Thank you Kelvin.
