The Wind in my Heart

Wind, where is it?
It comes, and it goes.
It makes it's way through the leaves of a tree,
yet I am not able to see
where the wind comes from, or where it will go.
I like the way the wind makes the tree leaves sound.
It is a peaceful tone much like a gentle rain
on a cool summer night.
There is a similar wind in my heart.
It makes it's way through my soul,
and I am fresh again.
It is the air I breathe,
and the force that gives me life.
