Black Wind

Like a sharp knife the winds cuts thorugh us In the shadows of the day we feel chilled The seemingly endless procession of stars in the sky Speak to us about what really matters Although our eyes are only a small part of eternity We should not feel belittled by the vastness of space Our small boats should continue to hold their flags aloft in spite of the bitter black wind

Almost feels like an omen, Matthew. "Bitter black wind", somewhat the tides of change? Still the stars will "speak of us about what really matters". We've such a bright and colourful world, I feel so sad when it is being abused. Best wishes, Mikki
