The Trees Dance

Wind,
rising.
The trees dance
to whispered songs.
Swaying to and fro on this summer night.

The breeze freshens the air all around us.
Sweet smelling night.
Fragrant air
surrounds 
us.

Heat 
dispelled
on a breeze.
We sit and watch
trees that are dancing for our enjoyment.

When tree's do dance no sweet romance, upon the withered bough, and love is sweet, dumb humans meet, but trees don't get the chance, love, Don Johnson

Beautiful tetractys, Francine. Watching the trees "dance" in the wind is so enjoyable. I see you have another tetractys and will check that one out as well. I think this one would be hard to top. Love, Carolyn
