For Edmund<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n


Breathe deep, it\u2019s only the first.
Many more await.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon you will greet the winter air,
Catch icy flakes upon your lips
As chilled winds pass<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In, and out again.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then you will find the Spring,
Cool and fragrant after a morning rain;
And summer will embrace you
With its gentle breeze,
Brush the sun\u2019s hot rays
Off your closed eyelids
As you lure a drowsy breath<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In, and out again.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Autumn will paint the skyline in warmth,
Send playful gusts along your path,
Blanketing it with tumbling color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

North and south winds
Will carry each breath
As life will carry you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Think of where the winds go \u2014
Dancing, pulling clouds across the sky \u2014
From the quivering poppy fields in France,
To the Rocky’s sweeping aspen groves;
Over frosted Himalayan heights, and
Between Gibraltar\u2019s straight,
Low and tossed with sea mist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There and everywhere
Will the wind carry your breath,
To every corner of this grand earth
Until you\u2019ve breathed it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C\u2019est un monde grand, ch\u00e9ri\u2014
Alors, vis avec chaque souffle.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
