Oh Wind
Take me away
Take my voice, my tears, my broken heart
You are so mighty
With your roar
And your sound
A raging river
A passing jetliner
An amtrak train
You who make the trees swing and sway
You who pull the leaves from their branches
Exposing their true nature
And their bare bodies
You who push and pull the birds in flight
Holding them still in mid air
As they flap their wings in fury against you
A game, a challenge, a test
As I sit safe inside
This warm box of love and life
With candles lit
Sweet smells of morning
And my little dog
You storm and scurry
Rage and Remove
Pick up and pass around
The surroundings of this home
And somehow I trust
That you will drop everything
Right in it’s place
Do that to me
Do that to my wandering mind
Do that to my worry and my woe
Take it
Throw it
Wind it up and send it on it’s way
Carry me like the leaf
Pull me from the branches
Then place me perfectly there
In that place
On the ground
Sound
Asleep
