The music of longing

The music of longing

It is the call of a passing lark
It is the piercing dog bark
The howling of a timber wolf
An owl's hoot across the dark

It is the song of a nightingale
It is the whistle of a winter gale
The rustling of autumn leaves
And the crushing sound of hail

    The harmony of all these creates the musical piece called longing. Nice simple rhyme.
