The Winds of Change

It’s indescribable,

Yet somehow undeniable

For me, as I reflect on where I’ve come

Through all the years and all the weary

Moments. Imperceptible

Has been the silent hum

Of choirs undeterrable

In days of sun or darkness cold and dreary.

 

Leaves rustle,

Branches bend,

And all the busy, excess bustle

Can fall away to point me toward a blend

Of what my life should always be

And how my soul is most complete.

The winds of change surrounding me

Have brought me back for us, again, to meet.

 

 

 

I wrote this poem a while ago but never shared it, for some reason. Maybe I was waiting for the right time. Given my recent move to Nairobi, Kenya, it seems appropriate now. My first month here has felt extremely busy and hectic, but I've enjoyed it a lot. I'm working with some wonderful people, and I think we're going to be doing some very interesting and impactful work together.
