Adrian L. Kerley

Into the winds,

steadfastly onward.

There is but one way.

Yesterday is spent

and tomorrow is but a thought.

Into the winds today, this day,

though the currents are stiff,

stalwart, and unyielding.

​

​

Oh, it is most certainly out there

and it is ahead, but only by

facing winds most determined.

They are ever there to test our resolve,

to strengthen our resistance,

and to enhance our future reward.

​

​

Face them. Don't be afraid.

Face them with courage 

embracing the way before

the Master who welcomes us

with a "well done" and an everlasting

recompense of beauty and love

at the end of our endurance.

​

​

For even as kites are lifted

in the face of adversity

and fly all the higher

with grace and ease

upon the backs of 

the most forceful of winds,

we fly in certitude,

following the way

set before us.
