THE HOUSE OF THE WINDS… Joanna Svensson

 

Up in the mountains

In the house of the winds

The spirit of nature

Is often present

Dressed in a green mantle

With buttons of flowers

And eternity's garland

Resting on his head

A garland of flowers and plants

In great variety of colours

With great variety of scents

Twined with words of wisdom

The spirit of nature looks at the earth

The spirit of nature looks to the sky

He picks up his invisible notebook

The spirit of nature writes and writes

The spirit of nature sketches and sketches

He throws into the air

Page after page - invisible

Invisible - page after page

All that needs to be done

And how it will be maintained

The correct time for everything

When each thing must happen

All this I see - painted i the sky

Painted with the lov'liest colours of life

Now I know - why the spirit of nature

So frequently visits

The house of the winds

Up in the mountains
