~Outside~

To wonder the color of the wind if it were to be seen
Heard only by the Makers, felt earthen, but seen not by a single eye
A possible palette of blues like that of a still sea at dusk
Or even blush reds that fill the creases of the petals of the African Daisy.

Loved it is, for it touches like an angel... calming a busy soul
Yet, seen by thine eye it is still not
Hated it is, for it touches like a devil... enticing unpleasantness from some
Yet, seen by thine eye it is still not

Running through the blossoms of the Makers like that wild
heart we once knew
Dancing along the heather, white fills the air

Has it stopped? No, it only rests
The labor of its carry has wore thin
Along the hill it starts its endless journey once more, and
where does it go this time? To me or to you
Will the Makers send it far away?
We will not know, until it speaks its name to us again.

Touching, passionate and tenderly written. This was a fine poem lovingly said

 Love is the life of the soul...
It is the harmony of the universe
