It's like ants at a picnic, a wasp in the outhouse (hey, I said I was poor) If the Wind was my training partner I'd put sand it its embrocation, boogers in its bidon and a squirrel in its spokes. And I LIKE squirrels.<br /><br />And yet, there have in fact been times when I turn the corner and there it is, the wind, waiting for me and laughing maniacally and I grunt down into the drops and start grinding it out and suddenly it's gone, or it's still there but I don't care anymore, for some reason. Bt it is aggravating, nonetheless.<br /><br />Have you tried reading your poetry to the wind?<br /><br />tjTim Joe Comstockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05351911607475089105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8849348372908281816.post-29043254165784754842013-06-01T07:40:22.642-07:002013-06-01T07:40:22.642-07:00Thanks Jim, Rae!

I've heard others speak of the wind as your training partner., but I just can't seem to make peace with it...I've had my "Lt Dan" moments (when I shout "YOU CALL THIS A WIND?" into it's uncaring merciless maelstrom as I slowly grind my way home). The wind is my bitter enemy, my kryptonite. It crushes my soul. Did I mention I don't care much for the wind?Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10517087265569164625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8849348372908281816.post-82407507587596494352013-05-31T18:46:18.019-07:002013-05-31T18:46:18.019-07:00I swear, when I was in Holland, no matter which di...I swear, when I was in Holland, no matter which direction I was going, I was riding into the wind!<br /><br />Great free verse for Friday, Matt!<br /><br />RaeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8849348372908281816.post-91181288213684278572013-05-31T09:11:05.312-07:002013-05-31T09:11:05.312-07:00Well Said!!!Well Said!!!Jim Bangshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11618333090634257257noreply@blogger.com
