As Free As The Wind

There is nothing more free Than the wind as I see Few glories as great As its sweet Liberty The wind blows as it pleases This way and that You can't grasp it or see it Until it blows off your hat You can't leash it or control it You can't chain it or enslave it You can't build it or break it You can only at times make it Its freedom is greater Than the birds who swim through it Its power is greater Than the trees who whistle in it Since you can't cage it You can't master it Its liberty is undeprivable Its freedom is guaranteed You can't put wind in a cage Or shackle it in chains Or market it in stores Or use it in wars If you want to be free Be as close to wind as you can be Unfettered, unbonded, unseen and unimpeded You can't stop what you can't see You can't chain what you can't grab You can't break a fluid You can't cage a wave If you want to be free, my dearest friend Be as close to wind as you can be
