Gusts to 30
Growing up in Oklahoma, I came to hate the wind. It never
seems to stop blowing. There are true accounts of some of the
early pioneers who developed mental problems from the constant
sound of the wind blowing through the trees and grasses. Now, I
have come to understand that my feelings toward the wind are a
love/hate affair. When I return to the state, I am always drawn
to the visible results from it. While I still don't like being buffeted
by the wind, I love the way it has molded the trees so that they
are all bent in the same direction. Likewise, I am fascinated by
fields of grass that look like a great body of water, as the wind
moves across it. "Gusts To 30" is a result of that love/hate
affair. It developed from seeing the grass and weeds bending
under the force of the wind on an Oklahoma country road.
