In Rushing Wind

Mountain peak height piercing the sky
	brushing its peak black clouds roll
piercing lightning does flash and thunder does roar
	cold heavy rain drops begin there to fall

Hot barren rocks quenched by its fall
	air becomes chilled and with moisture full
heavy it falls down bare mountain side
	rushing so quickly in gathering speed

barren rocks give way to patches of soil
	green bushes there to perilously cling
stirring now rustling in gathering breeze
	begin to be whipped by the growing cold wind

ripped free leaves flying in the wind
	rushing among the now growing trees
roaring now the wind gathers voice
	trees stand against the roaring gale

down in the valley green grasses do grow
	sunlight so bright does gently fall
upon colorful blossoms do grow
	and wonderful glory of bright summer day

slowly now the blossoms dance
	in a cooling gathering breeze
growing now into pleasing wind
	bringing joy in its refreshing flow

in the meadow she does walk
	gathering flowers on summer day
thinking of the one she loves
	who for now as far away

breeze is felt in auburn curls
	bouncing dancing by its flow
streaming forth so bright and long
	flowing softly about her face

eyes of blue to glitter bright
	reflecting of the joy she feels
full red lips that he loves
	smiling now in summer breeze

wind does blow past her now
	pulling at her flowing dress
showing forth her form divine
	lush full curves and flowing lines

on winding path on mountain side
	descending now out of the trees
this vision now before me appears
	bringing full of joy within

cooling wind blows at my back
	speeding my steps down mountain side
bringing me closer ever to my love
	who before me in meadow does dance 

scent the pine and falling rain
	mingles now with flowers sweet
flowing across the grass is there
	a full richness that fills the breeze

my steps to her do almost dance
	moved to the rhythm of my beating heart
and of the love I feel within
	nature's music on a summer day

within the wind and on the grass
	together now within each other's grasp
in bright sunlight and cooling breeze
	together now on gentle grass
