The Wind Blows

. . . and the wind blows pushing the blue bird higher farther past raindrops and darkened clouds into a valley of golden sun where rainbows dance in her dulcet eyes where worries wander away and new days are hatched . . . and the wind whips clearing out the old preparing for the new mixing the earthen mulch from a fallen past into an unmade bed of fertile ground A morning mist fills the meadow dew drips off the first spring daisy beauty overcomes me I hold her ever gently in my arms watching . . . as the wind blows

This felt very light and airy to me (and I'm not saying that because of the wind verses). You took me on a journey through nature and the joy of morning. "I hold her gently in my warms" ... I was curious on whether this refers to a person or wrapping up nature in your arms. In either case, it matters little, because it's beautiful nonetheless.

beautiful imagery and the structure of the write kind of sweeps you away into that picturesque valley, almost as if you were taking the journey with the bird, and then the ending strikes a bit of emotion knowing that the bird is possibly that someone you and i hold dear that makes all this magic true
