Blowing In the Wind

BLOWING IN THE WIND

There are breezes

From all directions

Playing

But tonight, the wind

High up

Is from the West.

I wonder what news it brings

Fire and Rain

And Changes

Life and death

Of all Earth’s children

The trees know

Whispering and rustling

In their infinite wisdom

Living in place

In this place
