The wind will carry you it has its own rhyme,
Surrender to the fall and let yourself go,
The breeze it will take you allow it to blow,

Dont be the twig or the leaf that wont fall,
For if thats what you choose you wont learn atall,
Seeking out north when the wind blows you west,
Will bring you more suffering,pain and unrest.

Be the leaf that sticks not on any one thing,
The breeze will not leave you you'll glide on its wing,
Now and then you may feel your down in the gutter,
Or caught up on an old batterd rusty porch shutter,
But be patient and listen through the trees and you'll hear,
The breeze she is coming just trust and she'll steer.

Or caught up on an old batterd rusty porch shutter,
But be patient and listen through the trees and you'll hear,
The breeze she is coming just trust and she'll steer.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
