A Chinook for the Heart

"Absence is to love as wind is to fire; It extinguishes the small and kindles the great."
-- Roger de Bussy-Rabutin
(Act 2:2)

Gentle coastal breeze
gathering passion
rushing
over rocky peaks
Racing fury over grassland

Assailing all that would stand in its path,

Igniting fire within
thawing icy hearts
bringing spring into midwinter;

changing the landscape of our lives.
