Analysis of silent winds
Within the silence of silent winds
and the blowing of the wind wind
Grounded in winters solace
The mind turns as the earth
Through eternal mystery unfolding
The sound of rain falling from a silent sky
Remembering becomes again possible
Though quiet in its solitude
Beginnings take shape
In the stillness of our memories
The scent of lavender in open field
Waterfalls spray fresh mist in lighted rays
Leaves falling amidst forest streams
There is a sound deep from within
Cold sun in frost at dawn
In the early morning
Reflected light off tilted trees
Winter fades in
Crimson dawn of moonlight nights
