            The Wind

It's been a deity and slave.
A blessed God send and a knave.
It is a power earth bound and
Lives a constant merry-go-round.

The wind blows in hot cold or fair,
Strong and week or beyond declare.
It has no sanction good or bad,
Nor does it temper glad or sad.

The wind is judgeless, week or bold
And does not favor young or old.
It does not feel or care, or dare.
It's just supplies a force that's there.

It never ever stops or sleeps
Brews like a tea and ever steeps.
It plays upon all living things,
Much like a bell that tolls and rings.

It also preys upon the bell
Wears mountains down to sand and shell.
It brings the clouds and blows the rain
Turns earth to waste or sugar cane.

It holds you close in parenthood,
But only, if it's understood?

Sy, I have a great affection for the wind.. blows out the bad, brown smoggy air...and brings those lovely floating leaves.
