The Wind


Can you hear the wind blow-
racing through the trees?
Can you hear it rustling,
dancing in the leaves?

Can you see the breeze move-
soft petals all a flutter?
Dry brown leaves twist in the air
landing in a jumbled clutter.

Can you feel the wind pass
right by you in a rush?
Currents charging forward
creating loud from peaceful hush.

Can you stretch your arms out
as  w i d e  as  w i d e  can be?
Look right up and shout out loud-
a holler full of glee!

Can you run and chase it
that freeing primal sound?
And when you catch it, keep it close-
both feet upon the ground.
