Ilene Bauer Poet Rhyme

A Breeze

There's nothing like a gentle breeze
To set your mind and soul at ease,
Especially on sunny days
To temper all those UV rays.

The swaying leaves and bending boughs
Encourage one to dream and drowse.
The windsock's ribbons bounce and twirl 
While dandelion floaties whirl.

Since mothers often know what's best
(As one, to this I can attest)
It figures what can most appease
Is Mother Nature's welcome breeze.

Maurice Rigoler June 13, 2017 at 9:58 AM It's hot as Hades taday – 76 degrees this morning at 7:30 a.m. and it's in the 80s now, with humidity, which makes the heat only worse. To add insult to injury, we have no nearby ocean breezes! Happily summer doesn't last for ever. / M
