The Lover Wind

A lover most capricious is the wind. At times he goes to Meadow. He exhales. . . Beneath his breath, her grasses’ blades are pinned until he’s spent, and then, away he sails. He’s been to visit Forest many nights. He gyrates through each tree, whose every limb responds by rustling leaves, and this excites him even more. He moans and gusts with vim! But lust is inundating when Queen Sea meets Wind. She surges when he starts to wail. Her body rolls and rises. . . . Ecstasy the times he comes as Tempest or as Gale. But I prefer the side of Wind that’s soft. . . when he caresses me with gentle waft. (116 words for the personification contest of Caren Krutsinger)

A sailor knows the wind. He lives with her every day. The wolf upon the foredeck the lashing of the ropes in the masts. There's love there to be found as we all must love our work. But until we get to land tis no lover for me. ~Kilmer
