I am A LEAF IN THE WIND

You know how it goes…

I am A LEAF IN THE WIND belongs to the following groups:

Art For The World, On Youth, THE SISTERHOOD and Up & Coming Writers

OH MY ..
HERE WE GO AGAIN

I am a leaf!!
Subject to the wind!
I think the wind has it out for me!!!
Why did I have to separate from my
Source anyway??

I did not ask to be separated from that
Place where I felt so connected and whole
Not Fair ..Not Fair.. I am not going to
Play ANY MORE!!
You see,
It is not my fault; all’s I do is land somewhere and then
I feel like I am home and bam!
The wind sweeps me up and I am no longer
A part of that scene or so it feels and then I feel abandoned
And forsaken!

Such is the life of a leaf in the wind.
How can one ever tell this leaf that the wind is
Exciting and wonderful and being a part of
Anyone’s life even for a minute, if it feels good, is enough!

Also if that leaf chooses to feel good no matter
Where it lands it can experience a quality existence and
Someday the saying will go like this:

Wow.. I am just like a leaf in the wind. My life is ever
Changing and I meet so many new people I fall in love with.
I remember them as I move on but well, and I am guilty here, the next one I fall into seems almost better than the last one!!
It seems my life keeps expanding as I am landing into /onto another and another experience as I allow myself to feel so good! Almost as if I use the last experience to springboard off into the next. Hey I feel like Tarzan catching vines screaming though the jungle finding my Jane around every
Corner! What an excellent life I live!

Yah.. I like this new story about what it is like to be a Leaf in the Wind_
This is the story I will tell all my players in my world to tell each other so everyone can support everyone else as they flit and they fly to so many beautiful experiences yet to be had, after all we gotta get used to ETERNITY SOMEHOW.

Ahhhhhh

Now that FEELS SO GOOD!

    What an amazing life
    one leaf can have,
    like a never ending
    story yet to unfold,
    some to be told,
    some to be hold
    some to be for
    gotten.

    What a life
    one leaf
    does have.

    ...and yes, Tone’s got the best comment… belly shakin’ luff.

    The day’s not over with.. and you are not either.. this is amazing all of it.. the feelings and the insights all play off each other to give us depth and laughs and tears.. It is ‘all good’ and we are here to experience the goodness is all its forms. I think your poem is wonderful.. and the thing about forgotten is really that the last experience is already woven deeply into the next.. so perhaps it is not that we forget.. we just pull each other towards the expansion of our Beingness and our light and our LOVE.. you are so loved by me my friend.. you have helped me in so many ways.. I honor you and I care deeply that you are here with me teaching me and kicking my butt too.. although I shall always kick back..

  • Vasile Stan

    nice…really nice…..I too am a leaf….lol

    Quite a bit of insight in this piece…what you describe here is something I’ve learned and am still learning to do…put on different glasses…and change my perception…just put together something new around that very issue.

    this is a good read!

  • linaji replied

    Markezz.. wow thanks for the input.. today I was thinking.. this sound soooooooooo corny’..
    everyone in my life is a gift.. and you know I felt it so strong.. in just being able to have the opportunity to use the tools I am honing to know that …no matter what.. it is important I find a way in any situation ..to feel relief/better /good.. practice.. and if we don’t have people coming into our life to give us the stuff that ruffles our feathers.. we would get out of shape and hone it down to lower vibes than what we are possible of.
    Tell new stories.. and new stories start to manifest.. it is all all all GOOD. XOX

    A leaf doesn’t plan where to land…. just fine with where it does.Close to the tree or far…...

    I love this line
    Changing and I meet so many new people I fall in love with.
    What is wrong with it? Nothing. Even if we show someone love for a short while, it’s a short while longer than they had without it.
