Zephyr


Through the wood the little breeze licks the loose leaves as it curls its way around. Gently bouncing off trees and shrubs alike, silent but ever present, it dances as it makes its own way ever forward. Aiming to be free from the restrictions of the forest, and out into the open. Ready and prepared to gust forward with all of its acquired might at the right time.

Thatโ€™s the dream of the Zephyr. To reach the point of freedom. Of no return. To let go, and keep going. Howling. Whistling. And relishing the exuberance of going with the flow.

Absolutely nothing to do with Halloween this. Just felt an urge to write about wind. Iโ€™m sure itโ€™s a spellโ€ฆ but sometimes, you just have to do it!

      I was, as free as the wind itself. Until Splodge saw me and I had to stop…

    Let fly, Tom. Let loose. When the urge arises, it’s time to live free. Free like the wind. Maybe that’s what you really want to do. Fly free like the wind. ๐Ÿ’ก

      Thanks, Sherri – that’s the beauty of writing – we can do anything, be anything, and go anywhere we want to in a single second… and for free! Flying free is always the best feeling – always!
