Strom ride

the wind does rip
	through the rustling trees
and debris races tumbling
	carried in the wind

chill is the wind
	hinting at rain
and the land lies darkened
by the threatening storm

yet in endless struggle
	though mightily strained
a small bird struggles
	in the darkening sky

wondering gaze I
	from far below
if it be hopeless
	the struggle in vain

yet hope do I
	triumph will be
the tiny storm rider
	so high in the sky
