Wind


No group more than the Native American Indians understood the importance of “wind”, in relation to their daily lives. It propelled their canoes, carried scent of their animals in the midst of a hunt, notified tribe-members of an emeny’s presence. It brought forth clouds that provided rain, sent smoke signals to neighboring tribes, and provided force through wind instruments, thus resulting in beautiful melody.

Ghost


I watched with glee while your kings and queens, fought for ten decades for the gods they made. I shouted out "Who killed the Kennedys?", when after all it was you and me. So let me please introduce myself, I am a man of wealth and taste. And I lay traps for troubadours, who get killed before they reach Bombay. Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name, but what's puzzling you, is the nature of my game.

Smitten


Love at first blight...although imperfect by themselves, they were so smitten with each other that their union was nearly flawless.

Trouble


As iron is eaten by rust, so are the envious consumed by envy.
-Antisthenes

So consumed by their bitter feelings towards the hares' incessant winning of the annual marathon, the turtles decided it was time to even the playing field. Envious justice, this day, was administered in the form carrots injected with C2 plastic explosives. Needless to say, this was to cause a great deal of trouble for the winners' post-game garden party later that day.

Quiet


There is nothing more magical than spending nightly hours in the thick of a pine forest. The quiet atmosphere is something to be experienced -- a passage of time too often neglected by us all in this most busy, broken and chaotic world.
