5/5


Tywla Tharp's words of the muse “That for whom I long to labor”
Has hovered in my mind a long time, not at all clear. For what
“That”, and “whom”?

To my question a friend did reply: "That for whom I long to labor
Is something inside me, another voice that speaks...to me. It is
Like the wind,

Sometimes blowing long and hard, forcing me to bend in its direction. 
Other times, so gentle a  breeze, I need be so still to feel, to not move 
too quickly, strongly. 

That 'wind' within is for whom I labor, even when it isn't there, 
treasuring the times I feel it strongly, it makes the laboring easier". 
I say, "Thank-you."
