I am the Wind, Unseen partner, Dancing with the clouds, Ruffler of hair, and Breath of the world. I put wrinkles on oceans, And smooth the tracks of man, From sand and snow, I whisper to lovers, Carrying messages between them, And in the Spring, I make love to the trees. I am the Sea, Lifeblood of the Mother, And the womb of life, I nurture storms, crush continents, And feed the world. My children hide the sun, And wash the sins of man, From the land. I keep their secrets within me, And carry their lonely souls From heart ache to heart ache. I am the sand, Once noble as a mountain, Now tossed by wind and sea, Filling the hollow places And scars upon the Earth. I am the voice of humility, The fate of the tallest peaks, Falling through fingers, like time, Like love, untended.

Sand
I am the Wind, Unseen partner, Dancing with the clouds, Ruffler of hair, and Breath of the world. I put wrinkles on oceans, And smooth the tracks of man, From sand and snow, I whisper to lovers, Carrying messages between them, And in the Spring, I make love to the trees. I am the Sea, Lifeblood of the Mother, And the womb of life, I nurture storms, crush continents, And feed the world. My children hide the sun, And wash the sins of man, From the land. I keep their secrets within me, And carry their lonely souls From heart ache to heart ache. I am the sand, Once noble as a mountain, Now tossed by wind and sea, Filling the hollow places And scars upon the Earth. I am the voice of humility, The fate of the tallest peaks, Falling through fingers, like time, Like love, untended.
