Wind

Wind
 is the breath of God,
 softly, gently reaching out
 kissing the forehead of man.
There are times
 when it rages angrily
 disappointed and giving us warning
 to be careful with what we do.
Some times it embraces us with thunder
 lightning and torrential rains
 or with sleet and ice and snow
 in disapproval and disappointment.
Then comes the calm
 the warm embracing moments
 of a Creator's love and care
 that soothes the heart and raises the spirit.
Wind rises slowly, effortlessly
 with the breath of sky and trees
 floating tenderly across the horizon
 revealing the radiance of the Sun, the Son.
Each breeze speaks to us
 begs for listening, hearing and understanding,
 it is we who chose to hear, listen, embrace
 the wind, the breath and voice of God.
