The wind is a force to be reckoned with…here’s why.

The wind blows freely through the dead trees

Howling, wailing – searching for me?

Does the wild wind have a mind of it’s own,

Possessing the sky where eagles have flown?

It must be strong, for it tears through my heart

Making me wonder, is the wind smart?

It carry seeds to where they should grow

But people have died from where the wind blows

The wind steals your balance, it steels your soul

What is its purpose, what is its goal?

It spreads baleful fire, or takes needed heat

That wind destroys homes and makes rain fall in sheets

Why doesn’t the wind just leave me alone

Instead of tearing right through me, straight to the bone?

    Beautifully written, “possessing the sky where eagles have flown”. Very thought provoking. Great work.
