  1. So I was taking a test today and the wind kept howling outside. I had some time, so I gave it some thought.
  2.  
  3. I wonder why the wind howls.
  4. It gets our attention with screams and twigs flung at windows.
  5. Maybe it's trying to remind us of something.
  6. Maybe it's trying to remind us that it's there.
  7.  
  8. "Look," it says, "think of me,
  9. "However you may feel in your buildings,
  10. "or whatever you may do,
  11. "I shall carry on, one force, constant.
  12. "And when you find nothing is certain,
  13. "Take comfort in this:
  14. "I am the wind, and through everything,
  15. "Long after you pass on, and long before you were born,
  16. "I keep blowing.
  17. "Be comforted, for though you may feel in turmoil,
  18. "And my shouts may seem chaotic,
  19. "I am more present than most.
  20. "Remember me, for I am the wind.
  21. "I am old as the Earth, but young as this gust,
  22. "And I, through all else,
  23. "Will continue."
  24.  
  25. I wonder if the wind means to say all this,
  26. Or if it's just me trying to find meaning where there is none.
  27. Whatever the case may be,
  28. I wish I could talk to the wind as it speaks to me,
  29. and say something simple.
  30. "Thank you."
