Flowing Around Your Life.

Goldfinch60



I am always there, travelling the world.

You can’t see me

Unless I get angry.

You feel me as a gentle caress

Across your skin.

I am there when the trees wave

Silently as I pass.

The ripples on the water show I am there,

The crash of the sea hitting the land,

Show my strength.

The swirl of my anger crossing the oceans

And hitting the land,

Uprooting trees, dwellings

And lives,

This is when you see me.

Beware, hide from me when I am angry.

The anger soon subsides

But the devastation remains

To remind you of me.

I am always there,

You can’t see me,

I am the wind.

I flow round your world

And around your life.

            This beautifully captures the essence and dual nature of the wind - both its gentle presence and its terrifying power... Very well written!!!
