Wind Song

I live inside raw power this morning.  I live in a forest and the wind is up, strong and consistent.  I sat outside in the dark to listen and watch.  The trees moaned like mammoth abstract harps, swaying lovers crowded in a ballroom their gowns and tails swishing up a ballad. 

I love this bridled power, the harnessed strength that you feel and know the mercy of the bridle.  I have lived in the wind when it has slung its bridle off like so much thin web and lumbered across land and civilization tossing all aside in a wrath that terrifies.  Yes there is A Mercy in the bridle that allows me to stand under the swaying trees and sing this morning…


How Great Thou Art.
