On a Gust of Wind

Life sails on a gust of wind;
light and buoyant as a feather.
It observes its surroundings,
embracing the journey.

The wind accelerates.
Life wrestles the wind;
compelling it to slow down
or change direction,
but the wind knows its own destiny.

Tenuous as a feather,
life senses a change;
a slackening of the wind.

Life drifts on a gentle breeze.
The last breath of wind
hums the feathery blues,
as it carries life to the finish line.
