WONDER

WONDER

A kiss on the cheek from a far distant love;
a caress, warm and gentle, from a soft satin glove.

The clouds on their highway, racing along;
a note, deep and sounding, as an unwritten song.

A cry from a child, not so happy today;
a stern mother's warning not to stray far away.

A scream in the darkness of dangers to come;
the wails of a warrior as the battle drums drum.

The breath in the lungs of a new baby girl;
a kite on a string with a spin and a swirl.

The face of the heavens, unleashed on the land;
the gails and the breezes that dance on the sand.

See this as you stand between earth and sky;
and wonder in reverence as the wind rushes by.
