The wind rides in solitude, unstoppable in Her might. And brushes eternity, dusting off the stars at night. She whistles through the treetops fluttering leaves with Her breath. Her tactile touch, like soft silk, harnesses pleasure and death. Invisible, She ferries dandelion tufts aloft. And tethered to nature's whim, goes from storm to gentle waft. She's the architect of clouds, yet oft blows them all astray. And though a powerful force, She's impossible to weigh. A salty sailor's mistress and the godmother of kites. She is like a playful friend that tickles more oft than bites. (Quatrain) 4/30/2021

Beautiful writing, Emile. So true, but today I was having lunch in the park because it was such a glorious day. A gust of wind came up and blew my french fries away! I salvaged my cheeseburger, tho. Such lovely images you have employed.

Hello Emile, I like this beautiful poem. i see the wind as a small fully cloud with a face blowing his heart out. Sometimes gently some strongly. You never know with the wind how it will be. Enjoy your day my friend.
