Wind, Hold Your Breath

Wind, hold your breath. Waiting world whispers, tarrying, lingering, loitering leaves listening for their name to be dropped, their turn to free-fall. No parachute needed, just melted resistance and severed ties. So wind, hold your breath; for this leap of faith needs soft landing…

Wind, hold your breath.

Waiting world

whispers,

tarrying,

lingering,

loitering leaves listening

for their name to be dropped,

their turn to free-fall.

No parachute needed,

just

melted resistance

and severed ties.

So wind,

hold your breath;

for this leap of faith

needs soft landing…

    This is how I felt when opportunity knocked & I took that leap to go with it.

      And look how well it all turned out for you – what a great example of making the right leap at the right time, scared or not! Thanks Rosy!

      Don’t hold your breath for too long, though… a blue Caddo is my least favourite kind. 🙂

        You know how I am–I’d burst out laughing long before I’d turn my fave color!
