Listen to the wind
It howls, shaking windows
Reminding us
that it is not yet spring.

Listen to the wind.
Buffeting, blustering,
blowing,
Cleansing.

Listen to the wind.
If you tell the wind your troubles,
Will someone else hear them
on the other side of the world?

Listen to the wind.
It holds the secret.
Watch the trees.
Bend, don't break.
