Emanating warmth from within
All that I am not,all that I am
Still a little boy
Yet every bit a man
Multi faceted gem
A crystal made of sand
The answers that you seek are written on the wind
Still tilting at those windmills
Only part of a master plan
Making your way in the real world
Just doing the best you can
The peace of mind you are seeking is written on the wind
A wild fire out of control
No boundaries will ever hold
The intrigue of the man
Are the depths of an unexplored land
and the secrets locked within
Are those written on the wind
I appreciate moderate constructive criticism
Who has seen the wind
Great book by W.O Mitchell
a canadian author
and wind makes you feel
cold warm hot annoyed
the senses the skin
hair eyes fingertips
to listen to its voice
yes it takes my mind off
things
when it gets really bad
i just go down along the
waterfront walking path
where everyone else hangs
out with the gardens and
the breakwater stones
beachs etc
listen to the waves
the sooth of the surf
whitecap conversations
and the dull hush of
water breaking on
sand again and again
like a heartbeat
wonderful poem

Will of the wisp or Zephyr?
Lovely poem Chrys which conveys the feeling of a multi-talented man who inspires in an almost mercurial way as he looks for the answers…the Zephyr..but perhaps lacks the grounding of real commitment to relationships..the will of the wisp. The wind is truly an unpredictable force but if you let it fill your sails you can still go far no matter what form it takes..lol…and I’m sure you know how experiencing its lack can be, lying in the proverbial doldrums.

(PS there is a typo…our Don Quixote should be “tilting” at his windmills)
