Don’t tell it to the windA Poem by Amy Michelle MosierDon’t tell it to the wind To be blown away as vapor Or share it with a gossiper As fragile as a dandelion. Don’t speak of it on the mountaintop; Even the clouds have ears. For fear that the Devil hears - Don’t pray for it aloud to God. Let the wish build up inside Then straight-faced, release it subtly - As your actions make it be - Until its existence can’t be denied.
