White Wind

Beautiful wind, come and wrap your cape around the willows
Your whiteness is the breath of God
That awakens earth’s soul.

White wind, calm the fields of harrowed ground,
Its toil for a moment is over.
Blanket it with your white pristine layers.

Winter wind, come and show me your purpose.
That I may rest and sleep
With the lullaby of your voice.

Great imagery here ... I can almost hear it blowing ... smile ... we just seem to have endless rain here in the Pacific NWest but, compared to a lot of other areas of the country, I'm grateful for where I live!! Thanks for this beautiful writing in a form I have yet to try ... smile ...
