Poem: Whispers of the Wind

Wind comes rushing down the plain,

murmuring in its quiet tone,

assuring that there soon comes rain,

and to the fields that are sown,

~

that their thirst will be quenched,

their roots will be fed,

that they will not be wrenched,

from the earth, lifeless, dead.

~

The wind continues, rustling the brush,

patting the flowers and green grass,

which is long and lush,

Waving all the while until the breeze goes past.

~
The wind climbs then,

ascending an oak’s firm brown bark,

lifting its leaves so they fly again,

swooping through the air in an arc.

~

It encourages all of nature,

calm and cool,

it lifts all things stature,

leaf, tree, and pool.

~

So when it brushes against your hair,

or perhaps rustles a leaf pile,

don’t think of sad thoughts and despair,

but smile my friend, smile.
