the wind never settles, a constant change;
what a perfect match for the stoic tree.
(all jealousy aside, of course)
the wind and the tree, a match made in heaven.
the wind wanders and roams,
flirting and playing,
carrying gossip and news, kites and smells.
twos and threes and honey blossom bees
the birds sing thanks.
the wind can make the stuffiest old oak dance and move
wave and smile,
maybe even whisper a tune.
it knows its place though it russels and shakes,
it stays firmly rooted.
the wind may roam, but the tree see change.
generations come and go under its watchful gaze
hares today gone tomarrow
growing slowly taller, hoping to see farther
stretching to glimpse of all the wonders the wind speaks of.

** The names Jordan, Im one of those Jesus kids. what can i say? i love the guy. you'll never hear me condemn someone for thinking or feeling different than me, thats just not who i am. however, if the fact that i have faith in God is going to be a problem for you, then just back out now because your not the kind of person i want to spend the time getting to know better.
Psalm 25:7 Remember not the sins of my youth
and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me,
for you are good, O LORD.

when life gives you lemons, kick it in the teeth and say "hey!, i ordered strawberries !" life is too short to sit around accepting crappy handouts of lemons. i say take from life everything you can, its wallet, its time, its milk money, get the most out if it because you might die tomarrow. shrug it off all you want, but its a possibility. every day is an adventure, an oportunity to learn something new. if your not learning and experiencing life in news ways every day, your dead where you stand. keep searching. our time on this earth is shorter than any of us could ever guess, so every day should be spent searching for new people, places, love, happiness, pain, fear, LIFE IN ALL ITS GLORY. never surrender to the rut of a 9-5 job. the day we get chained to a business suit is the day we die, period. freedom is boundless, but that doesnt stop us from reaching out with all our might and being greedy, grabbing as 2 giant handfuls and fully embracing the adventure that awaits behind the next breath. walk through a cemetary, talk to crazy people on the bus, hit on the hot guy/girl in the coffee shop, hit on the ugly one later that day. chase squirrels, read books, hitch hike, fight, make up, make out, give all you can to those who have less, protest, support, fight with cops, shake a security guards hand, protest wrong, humble yourself to truths, learn from death, grieve about life, fight, bleed, go, stop, hate and forgive, love and learn, jump, skip, sing, dance, smile, wink, play, win, lose, FOR GODS SAKE AND YOUR OWN, LIVE! LOVE
