We are like the wind
Sometimes gentle
Sometimes harsh
A lazy breeze
On a sunny day
Is when life feels most right
And yet, there is more to us
When trouble is around
Blowing hard
Against our foes
Tumbling feelings across the ground
Pushing our way
To find our path
And set our course again
Doing our best
To not become
A hurricane force wind
But we need solace in our hearts
As we pull back the reins
The wind may be invisible
And like us can hide the pain

Very insightful words π

I especially like the idea that even a calm wind can hide pain. I always thought a tornado was needed to keep prying eyes at bay, but I can see much more clearly now.

Thanks, Richa! I just wrote for Y (funny) and I’m thinking about Z. Unfortunately, I’ve let NaPoWriMo go during this. Maybe I can jump back on after Z… Thank you for stopping by! :-)))

A wonderful metaphor, Kevin. I like the way you capture the “windiness” of emotions as well as those that are invisible.
