I asked the wind..

    I asked the wind to pass on this message,
    and the wind told me she'll try...

    I hope it reaches you, safe and sound,

    but just in case it passes you by:

    "“I miss you when something really good happens, because you are the one I want to share it with.
    I miss you when something is troubling me, because you are the one who understands me so well.
    I miss you when I laugh and cry because i know that you are the one that makes my laughter grow and my tears disappear.
    I miss you all the time"

      and then the learning comes
      as the candle moves toward the gust
      with word and meaning blossoming
      slowly from the twig to bud
      with breeze and puffs of air
      the message reflected
      from sharp roofs
      the arms of trees
      past the brushwood
      thick with thorn
      reflected in the air
      we breath
      and by each breath we
      take all in wondering what's
      on the wind encouraged by
      the petals fall
      passing each color as they plummet
      missing your arms to touch
      being alone teaches so much
      so wait and hold
      this question dear and know
      we are always near

      nice image :))

      Dudete, this is truly and utterly awesome. I keep on using the same words to comment on a lot of your images which tends to be some what of a boring experience.
      But check out the Blurr effect and the way you merged the two layers. The black and white boosts the contrast of the petals being blown by the wind, coupled with a fantastic set of words. These words pack a lot of punch. This is due to the smart usage of the image stimulus in order to influence the readers mood. Very smart move dudete. Very smart indeed. I know am restating the obvious but it makes me sound so cool. :D Ok shutting up and back to work. Rock on my friend!
