Bare with me as I don't know how this will turn out but I will not change it as that is not my style. I hope you enjoy and understand what I am going to say here...

As the wind passed by a young man he lifts his head and asks a question. "Where were you yesterday?  It was hot and uncomfortable. I wanted you to be here." The wind replied with its usual ruffling through the mans hair. I am never gone the wind said. Sometimes I am here as a hurricane and other times you might only see a single leaf flutter yet I never disappear. "You left" the man retorted. I've been busy the wind replied in kind. "But I need you every day" the man said with absolution in his voice. If I was to move swiftly everyday you would tire of my presence. "But I want you here"  the man said now demanding. I can't be everywhere the wind whistled calmly. You didn't need me yesterday though its clear you wanted me to be. "I've come to expect you to be here" yet you would not have appreciated me had I been here. I blow across the fields and past the mountains. I enjoy being a part of everything I pass. You would ask I only pass by you? "I don't understand" the man said. I know the wind whispered as it moved on. With the tiniest flutter of hair the man heard ill be around.

Sorry I missed the comments before. Thank you all for commenting. I'm enjoying posting some free writing on here. I've always kept it to myself before the last couple months.
