Wind

Bring dark clouds together

To make rain

To irrigate

To harvest the fields

To grow the wheat

In the bread we eat

Moving out the clouds

Clear the air

Bring clarity

Warmth with the sun we see

Make beautiful music with wind chimes

But also destroy the weak

Expose the mighty

Create a mess amid destruction

Cold weather winter

Hot summer breeze

Gentle

Bringing the new

Sweeping out the old

Invisible air in motion

Yet giving direction

What fills the sails of a boat

It can disperse dandelion seeds

It can bring down giant trees

Bring down dead leaves

Angry hurricane winds

Messenger of the gods

Wherever the wind blows

Moves dust and clouds to hide the sun

Or move them to see the stars

It can fertilize the earth with pollens

Or cause allergies and misery and pain

Oh mighty wind

You’re like a

Lost soul

Wandering

Wherever the

Wind blows

Some days

I too

Feel like

The wind

We all do
