You Gave Me This Courage

wind,
brush up against
my back
help me to break
the
descent to earth
thus
you have
shaped my life
and
you gave me
sweet courage
to fly,
home, again
while
you gave me this courage
and
you gave me this chance

Smile~well, in here I find the label of inspirational!:) But again, I am wondering Gregory~Is it the wind which inspires You, or is the wind a mataphor towards something much more inspiring and "Great?!"~Perhaps, some flowing and living waters, from an endless fountain?! Smile~Again, "My Love To You & All You Love, Forever, John!":)~"Another Wonderful Write!!!"
