Father Wind

Ocean Breath Father Wind


Father wind 
refreshment
And cooling 
on skin heated
From brother sun.

Then  you are the delightful one.

Father wind
Humbling
And freezing
On skin exposed
In elements
Harsh, brutal and cold.

Then  unwelcome you are told.

Father wind
Destructive
And frightening
On skin no shelter
From Hurricanes
Ferocious wind.

Then evil ,your greatest sin.

Father wind
Forgiveness
And understanding
On skin
Misunderstanding
Then in ignorance so believe we live
 That these you gracious give.
