Boreas - God of the North Winds

Boreas - God of the North Winds

A Poem by ConnectedWinds

From such a breathtaking view

His mighty bora winds arrive

Without warning

An unbridled presence

Demanding attention

Ripping away normalcy

Terrifying in their strength and potential destruction

Treacherously gusting fingers energize each inch touched

Roaring with unstoppable force  -  life

Over every contour

His fiery breath

Cradles seeds from mountain tops

Around hills, through valleys

Ending in glorious sprays of water

Arching high over energized seas

Unimagined beauty revealed

 

No barricade can shut out

This unstoppable force of nature.

Step outside

Embrace

Such a beautiful strength

Feel it

Let nature’s passion

Embrace your soul.

Entwined gusts intricately dance

Harmonize to their rhythm

Footsteps need not reach the ground.

The soul titillated with dreams of the unfathomable,

The ironically familiar.

Chemical reactions leave

The warm afterglow of pure life.

 

And with a sad remorse

And an indescribable pleasure,

Boreas’ winds are gone.

Normalcy returns.

But his mark is indelibly set

Fantastic images burned in the mind’s eye

The skin remembering his pure energy

Perception of reality forever altered.
