Wind is the rush of cold that nips at your skin

Wind is the icy fingers of the sky reaching with some lament

Wind carves mountains to look small and thin

Wind gives the feeling of strong movement

Wind carries leaves from hundred year old trees

Wind whips hair back at one's face

It challenges those things meant to stay in place

Wind carries paper containing love letters

It wraps around all life and ruffles bird feathers

Wind knocks open household shutters

It breaks the barrier of stillness and calm

Wind is chaos and noise you can't hold in your palm

Wind is free like a spirit carried out in a psalm

Wind is the feeling of fall beggining

Wind is destruction of every thing living

Wind carries harsh words that come out and sting

Wind carries backlash on every cruel thing

Wind smears the presence of all my makeup

It makes it harder for me to wake up

Wind is the source of so much fine beauty

Yet it makes me want to lift up my hoodie
