This is a time of tumult all over the world. 




Wild Winds Blowing

There are wild winds blowing up rain and fire

People crying and dying and killing and sighing

Oh, my soul is aching to leave this body-- dying

And I come and write these words because I'm trying

To tell the world to stop all this hating and dividing

But I am weak and worn and losing my desire

As the wind and the rain has overcome my fire.

Seven lines of heartbreaking angst. May we all blow gently on the embers of our world and yours.
