blow, i pray!




winds from God: wind

from humanity, winds from nature

winds from north, winds from south

winds from east, winds from west



blow, i pray; blow it hard

blow in my nodding mind

and in my unproductive yard

until aged are dropped to be dead



blow, i pray; blow it hard

until the self in slumber is awaken

and the roots are shaken

and shaken hard



and new life become firmly rooted

in my mind and in my yard

lent to me for productive plenitude

blow, i pray; blow it hard
