A NEW WIND IS BLOWING

A NEW WIND IS BLOWING

 

A new wind is blowing

It is coming from a different direction;

It’s fresh and strong

Blowing away old frustrations

 

The wind is blowing through the house

Blowing open a door that cannot close

Pent up feelings disappearing through vents

The window fog blown away

 

I look out onto the street and I see a world of possibilities

I am not tied to my unhappiness

My fears crumble in the wind

A flame of confidence re-igniting in my soul

 

The wind blows away all disguises

Leaving me unencumbered to see the truth

My path swept clear of obstacles

Revealing the way forward

 

I start to follow the yellow brick road

And suddenly I cannot stop

I have started on a new journey

Leaving tentative plans behind

 

The wind is blowing in my back

Its force pushing me to follow my resolve

I am standing on top of the mountain

And I am no longer afraid to fall

 

The wind… will catch me;

The wind stirring my soul

The wind of change.
