Notes About The Poem

Windswept

sailing on fresh breeze
my hat is off for a ride
alluring blue skies

fragrant flowers cringe
until gold moment all's clear
windsongs at windows

a determined quest
from orange clouds to the ground
in in-between hours

scattered grave matter
in the whirlpool of hued days
sparkling in slow time

Lovely imagery, Evelyn; one of the things I miss about youth, riding a motorcycle in the mountains, the rush of wind and matter -- it was all good.

Cleverly designed windswept images, Evelyn. I liked them al but especially the last one: in the whirlpool of hued days sparkling in slow time--so well said!
