Awwwwww. Sweetness in ... ink!

When I was a young girl, my Mommy read the Old Mother West Wind books to me. Your dear story took me back in time, to the simpler days of my childhood, and I thank you for this, Diane. As I am a deep student of metaphysics, I always appreciate metaphors and allegories (are these the same?), so your story made it even clearer to me that one needs to be calm to see one's reflection! I believe that our thoughts and ideas are reflected in the ponds of our lives. I'll remember the Little Wind when I need to see my Calm more clearly! It's my Better me!! :<))

I heard the Old Mother West Wind books from my grandmother. I think it was in the back of my mind when I wrote The Little Wind, and that Little Wind may actually be one of the Merry Little Breezes from those books. Thank you for reminding me of those stories, which my soul has never completely forgotten.
