Imagine…

Tree birds, singing while dancing through the air;

And bees humming in the foreground, as they attend to the flowers.

You see a colony of gnats hovering above the tall weeds,

And you feel the grass crunch under the weight of your feet.

With the glow of the sun now blinding your eyes;

You inhale and smell the herbal air.

The creaking of branches increases all around you,

Due to your presence alerting the treelife, to move on.

Are you there? In this space?…

But you are not alone.

Someone walks beside you, watching you intently.

Their steps you do not hear.

Their body you cannot see.

This person doesn't even try to speak.

For what is the point, if you‘re unable to hear them?

So, quietly he accompanies you,

Smiling softly in your direction.

Sweat begins to cluster on your neck,

And it catches the attention of your quiet companion.

He gently raises his arm,

And you feel a soft breeze cool your neck.

The Spirit of the Wind walks beside you,

Admiring how your hair flows with the currents he emits.

You are the 1st visitor to walk within his domain,

And as gratitude, he shall be your guide.

He knows you are unaware of his presence,

For such is the law regarding the Physical and Spiritual realms.

But the Spirit of the Wind is an old spirit, having seen many things.

For he knows that with his gift,

He can show you the way of that which you seek.
