The winds blow their own freshness into you,
and the storms their energy, while cares will
drop away from you like the leaves of autumn.
~John Muir
I'm not quite certain if I've only just reconnected
with the wind or only met it for the first time. In
this trip over the passes, both going and coming,
we've experienced wind as never before. It may
be a case of first time hauling a travel trailer
through the breezes from hell, but several friends
and family have commented on it as well. This in
turn, brings to mind all those souls who have
suffered the horrors of extreme weather through
the long winter months . . . flooding and fires,
hurricanes as well. Makes me realize in our little
trip, we truly experienced nothing of the kind.
Me thinks Mama Nature is faunching at the bit,
as it were . . .
prithee winds of strife
pray bring your sorrows no more
quaking in my boots
