You were mending a fence on the high pasture when the wind stopped. Not died down — stopped, like a held breath. Then the air around you began to hum, and the fence wire sang in a key you'd never heard. You pressed your palm to the post and felt it — the storm inside the stillness, waiting to be spoken. That evening, the sky opened and you knew the language of it.
