The Way of the Wind

Now and then sometimes and then in-between The way of the wind is a way so serene To find oneself carried completely on air Just drifting in silence with nary a care The way of the wind cannot simply be caught It isn’t a venture so easily taught A mindset of karma for fortunes outlaid Will hopefully spend now with gratitude paid So free and so easy, a sea-breeze delight When floating in freedom all day and all night But when one can find it, when head space permits Then everything questioned all finally fits A tempest, a zephyr, a current or whisk Just let yourself fly, go ahead, take a risk The worries that burden in life underpinned Will suddenly vanish, the way of the wind

Good morning, Mike. My attempts at flying have not been successful lately. I'll need more practice in order to find this kind of serenity. For the time being, I'll find it in the soothing lines of your poetry. Very nicely written.
