Breeze

Breeze
A whiff of zephyr blows across the trees
Swirls softly, upbeat, so salubrious
 It whispers Spring, heralding gentle breeze
 See budding blooms lift up heads, curious!

Evanascent,  pristine breeze swing this way
Our flesh and soul both crave your soothing touch
Each pore is thirsty, seeks your playful sway.
Let us sniff in your joyful dulcet gush

We know that hot winds shall take over soon
With rising mercury distress will soar
Cocooned indoors shall gasp in  stifling noon
perturbed the blaze may scorch us to the core

Help us indulge in  moments, rare so fine
Your fragrance soaking in, placate us so
That basking in your blissful scents divine
Surrender to your kind refreshing flow

          Footnote
The  eagerly awaited invigorating North Indian spring with its cool breeze  is way too short lived , giving in  soon to a  raging summer with hot dusty winds.
