THE WIND HAS STOPPED

THE WIND HAS STOPPED

The wind has stopped blowing,there is
A sense of stillness in peoples minds.
Time to think upon life, and all its hardships.
When we let ourselves be blown here and
There by any whim that takes us we forget
Life, and do as we like.We treat life as a waltz,
With all the grief that we have successfully
Cast into the wind:- death, sickness, disability.

Our friends were caught up in their cold winds of life
As we blithely went our own merry way riding
That carousel to nowhere. Time now that the
Wind has stopped blowing to look around reach out
Our arms give life a hug, and help a friend.
Offer to listen, and hold their problems in our hearts.
Offer solace let them know how much we love them.

The winds shall once again blow, and then it could
Be a cold, cold wind with not a friend in your life.
If you let the wind blow you here and there
It becomes so difficult to utter these simple words,
Hello again, I love you, and missed you.
