Beware of Windy Mornings

Beware of windy mornings
For the wind brings lost feelings 
And unsaid words. 
Tread carefully, little one,
Watch your tongue, sit up straight, 
Beware of the wind. 
Watch out for its vexed grasp.
Don’t let it get hold of you
Or you may find yourself 
Saying the things
That were meant to remain unspoken. 
Be mindful of the people around you
For the wind is unforgiving
And therefore will seize anyone in its path, 
Even the people you love most. 
Pay attention to where the wind's blowing. 
Watch your step, watch yourself. 
Don’t let the wind take hold
And wait until it’s passed. 
And forget about the wind
Until it comes once again. 

Beware of windy mornings.

  • Mother to Child

    From the day you were born I loved you unconditionally. 

    I loved you every second, of every minute, of every day. 

    When you were born, I was reborn alongside you. 

     

  • Lake

    Fall

    You are still, but the bright trees around you shake. 

    Colored leaves fall onto your surface.

    The wind howls, but you are calm. 

  • One: A Tale of Love

    I never realized

    There was a big difference between

    Being in love

    And loving someone.

    Not until you came along.

     

    I’ve come up with an idea.

    I call it

    The hole of love.
