The Wind and his Tree

A piece of music plays...

It circles my mind round and round
Like an ice skater skillfully across the slickest ice.

Its beat drums in tune with that of my heart.
Pulsating to the sound of my soul.

Making me feel loose and relaxed
And uncharacteristically out of control.

I enjoy lazy afternoons like this filled with wonder and heat
Gazing out of my window watching the wind dance through
The trees like a seductive lover who twirls his dance partner.

The trees and wind dance together in harmony and intertwine
with one another.  Moving melodically and fluidly
across my window.  Reminding me of the sweet soft moment when two
souls come together in a magical embrace.

The wind so different from that tree.  One so powerful and strong.
Strong enough to blow away her leaves.  He moves around her
making her dizzy.  Causing her to loose sight of how powerful
he really is.  She is afraid of him, the wind.  How his body blows
right by her.  How he moves so coolly and so effortlessly.

His long arms reach around her and trap her in a cool embrace.

She likes it.

But he does not realize the hold that she also has on him.
Her strong body.  Every curve of her long and beautiful trunk.
Her body twisting and moving and swaying in his wind.  See her branches
shift and move.  The leaves, her hair, falls in beautiful tendrils down her body.

Caressing her skin and being blown swiftly and softly by him.

They dance together.

Caught up in each other.  Never knowing who began this dance nor who
will end it.  Only knowing that they are lost forever in this moment.

Two beings brought together over the expanse of time. So separate, so
different, yet working together so beautifully in harmony to music of nature.

To the beat of the drum

To the drumming of my heart

Sitting here staring out my window...

Listening to the music moving through my mind

And longing...longing to dance
