To read is to travel through pages
Discover wonderlands and winter worlds
Leaving a sunny Caribbean in stages
Tip toe or walk through place or time 
Wend and wade you travel through pages
Long long ago or far far into the future
Choose your pace breaking all cages
The universe gets smaller fitted to eye span
You can sing though the storm rages
A cup of tea will soothes your aches
And wonderings as you travel through pages

#104: Road Trippin' Part II

AND



Of Houses, Walls and Whistling Winds
Prompted to include the line in a bit of prose  
"there is nothing behind the wall
except a space where the wind whistles" 
from “Drawings By Children” by Lisel Mueller

WIND SPEAK
What a September this was, with winds speaking in angry tongues. 
I listened but could not comprehend  this wind-speak. Not only was there the language but also the angry action of ripping off bits of my roof and rearranging to it angry wind order.
You might think there is nothing behind the wall
except a space where the wind whistles ah but not so there is the bougainvillea shrub with its white blossoms coddled by bold radiant bracts.
We all need a bit of comfort from the storms of life, yes indeed.  There is the bougainvillea shrub behind the wall
