The Wind

With rustle and twirl, The wind Sets the leaves awhirl They spin Like colored dancers And then With a whispered sigh, The wind Drops them from on high. It vanishes through the trees, Free and careless as It please; Comes back a whisper To tease, Through a snowy veil, The leaves Into one last dance.

I felt a sad and brooding cry in this poem. Someone needing the love and understanding of themselves from others, yet not wanting to expose those loved ones to their hurt?? I know we all interpret poetry differently. Very touching.

This was light and playful, calling out the wind in everything it does!
