Blow Wind Blow
By Eileen Dugwell
Kenya
Blow Wind Blow

There’s a wind that blows from the East & to the West
It has NO care or limits and at speed it’s so at it’s best
Great trees tumble yes and apples to the ground do fall
The victims can be broad so short or thin & even tall

But this threat which shows no favours to all that’s in it’s way
All that blocks it’s path it’ll buckle, break let fall & even sway
It is only for a moment, it’s noise maybe present but for a day
The path it travels, where it comes from is not easy now to say

There is however a wind that blows that never goes away
It lights up those who feel its breeze and all that’s in its way
A wind of love & passion for the weak yes needy poor
Have you heard this wind of passion banging at your door?

Or are you the seeker of yourself all so selfish and icy cold?
With all your power & money but for love you’re not so bold
To stretch a hand to the poor yes and love to the lonely speak
Or does your craving for yourself  of coldness only reek?

Yes the wind that shakes the trees so majestic & so tall
Is here for just a moment but let’s the strongest even fall
From where it comes or goes is not what really matters
Just to know it plays a part in the lofty trees it shatters

This wind of love yes passion for the needy and the poor
It does not comes and go & it’s now knocking at your door
Are you hard of hearing, your reaction so cold & even slow
Or will your cry your passion to this wind of love now BOW

AND SAY

Love the poem and what it stands for. Great imagery and feeling. This is just my
initial reaction. I'll come back to this again and again
