Say hello to the wind for me
How does one see the wind?
She's in the rainbow, each colour, each breath outlined in majestic colours.
She's in silence, the whistling of restless leaves sweeping across vast space.
She is the flapping of the wings of birds in the distance, calling out their love affair.
She is in a song, melodies carried on her endless curves.
She is the voice through which the mountains speak, echoing wisdom of time immemorial.
She is the gentle sighs of lovers whispering their love.
She is the very breath of every second, of every day - life's very force.
She is gentle, she is fierce, she is nature personified.
You can't miss her.
Close your eyes, listen, feel the tingling of your skin,
and say Hello to the wind for me.
