Message from the Winds/ By: Tarina Lauren Kate





Calm before  storm


The sun and blue sky blend in perfect unison.


The water still-like  mirror. It calls our name. Of course it does.


We go. We always do.


A flash and  the wind screams and blows.


The caps on the water are white; the sky dark


The clouds take on a different shape. Beautiful.


Th birds don’t linger


It feels more autumn and less summer


All within a single instant.


And we watch it we do. We soak it in. It is part of us that wind.


The wind not replacing the sun;  enhancing it.


The wind is angry but also powerful; if ever I die I would be the wind-I would send my messages that way.


The wind  persists then is -calmed.


Tenderness returned


Sweet tenderness we allow


Is it the first time I have not been afraid?


How does he see me now in this new light? Who am I without what always was?


The air changed


Two bodies-two lives entangled in love


Time for loving. Time for us


Away from the realities-yet in the know


Yet desperately entwined in it all


The beautiful million colors of the rainbow-did you know it has shades the eyes cannot see?


Patience is a virtue. Patience is necessary.


Patience is Hard. Hard. Hard. Good. Good Good.


And as I fell into slumber-I smiled


I stopped holding my breath so tightly


I let my jaw become loose


A smile for the sun who is me


A smile for the wind who is me


Understanding that I am whole and complete as I am.


That I am cherished and adored.


That love is there. Again


That I stepped away from the door and into my own life


Ad that now we are ready one step at a time to discover the real landscape our our lives.


Tenderly. Angrily. Powerfully. Courageously.


United in pain and wonder


We have arrived. With the wind.
