I Can Hear the Wind

I can hear the wind whistling in the trees, blowing loose strands of hair into my face; playful-like, not quite enough to displease. As a stillness morphs into a cool breeze and Sol weaves colored clouds into pink lace: I can hear the wind whistling in the trees. As if by magic, crystal raindrops freeze, and the snowflakes fall at a gentle pace; playful-like, not quite enough to displease. The sky exhales in whispered harmonies as a scarlet sun sinks without a trace: I can hear the wind, whistling in the trees. Combining alternate realities, Autumn and Winter start to interface: playful-like, not quite enough to displease. When temperatures dip a few degrees and leaves get scattered all over the place: I can hear the wind whistling in the trees, playful-like, not quite enough to displease.

Hi Emile: Such a pleasing pulsing villanelle ala Dylan Thomas! I have written several until I got it right but it is difficult with me. CONGRATULATIONS!

Emile, I must agree with Heidi's assessment of your poem 'I Hear The Wind'. No two snowflakes are ever alike, and so too poets. -Richard
