A Breeze

I saw a breeze after it had passed,
in its shadow left a thought.
In response I left an invitation
that should it return
it should stay a little longer.

I don’t know, it didn’t say, 
whether it had to catch its mother
or chase its lover.
These things like people come and go
in passing leave an impression with no intent
like chasing shadows through a barnyard fence.
