The Winds Before The Strom

Oh, the winds 

before the storm,

teach me what God taught you!

Oh, how calm you are, 

before it hits you.

God, the way 

you contain yourselves.

Not a flicker of anxiety.

Or a hint of worry.

Teach me, dear winds,

what the world has taught you.


Teach me, 

because when the storm stares me in the eye, 

I hear it growl,

Ready or not, here I come.


And I?

I'm never ready.
