The wise-
don’t build on sand.
but spirit does.
At the mercy of whispers,
the wind utters
her contempt
for stability-
she is a freedom
lover, enraptured by
the pull of lunar
and warm breezes.
Sister sun-
shines on the shadows
of stone-
where secrets try to
hide.
Yes, the wind IS a freedom lover.....seems to laugh a bit at stability, don't you think? I enjoyed your perspective, Lisa.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mary.
Deletesmiles...the wind finds its way, much like water that flows over boulders and into places others thought secret...there is a tentative balance between stability and freedom, isnt there...

DeleteLisa,
ReplyDeleteI liked the notion of 'the sun shining on shadows of stone where secrets try to hide.'...Giving a clue, casting a light..
I liked your play with words Lisa, rather like the freedom the winds can choose.
