The wind in your sails or a wind at your back
The advantage you want that will keep you on track
It eases your way, just the push that you need
A break from the hindrance that hampers your speed
You barely can feel it, imperceptible nudge
Allows you to breath on the trek that you trudge
It is such a relief when you know the wind’s blowing
In exactly the bearing and way that you’re going
Because when it’s not, when the wind’s in your face
A weight added on that can hold you in place
It makes the work harder and saps valued strength
It even might add to the breadth and the length
For life is a struggle, requiring grit
And any advantage takes the strain out of it
So should, on your journey, feel moment of calm
A lightness of step that’s abating as balm
It’s hand that is lifting, a friend that’s supporting
It’s pieces of puzzle that are suddenly sorting
How far we can go, will it spur us to lead?
That incentive just might help us all to succeed!
