Wind

The wind blew a distant breeze 
that settled briskly behind 
a broken fence mending earths 
sudden spheres that sprang up 

abundantly aroused by calm gestures 
and meaningful gatherings entering 
empty matter of hidden shadows 
following the jaded hours where darkness 

looms while orchids bloom sparingly 
about tempted shores catering to the lowly 
just to take a peek of the unseen measured 
only by a grave past time remembering 

hence mourning what's left under 
a broken twig the crumbling of dead leaves 
blown away at the coming of evening tides
