We use every day; here I was happy, in that place I left my coat behind after a party, That is where I met my love; I cried there once, I was heartsore; but felt better round the corner Once I saw the hills of Fife across the Forth, Things of that sort, our personal memories, That make the private tapestry of our lives.
Old maps had personified winds,
Gusty figures from whose bulging cheeks Trade winds would blow; now we know That wind is simply a matter of isobars; Science has made such things mundane, But love – that, at least, remains a mystery, Why it is, and how it comes about That love’s transforming breath, that gentle wind, Should blow its healing way across our lives. ”
