Windy Nights and Mornings

Blackened tendrils take the trees, Take the skin by follicle, Empty matter, pushed debris, Pressed and parabolical. Zephyrus claims, lack of choice, Echoes through the aether, Chaos calms his quiet voice, To suffer with the weather. Windows shutter, clap in tune, Aeolus purring bag and pipe, Uilleann iron, aural rune, Despite aptitude and gripe. Nonetheless the Iris slims, To folded air in lack of light, Cluttered ever in the whims, To that which chances sight.

It has been devastating reading about the fires. We can only hope for the administrations, teams, and resources to aid. I wish I had more than thoughts to provide.

Wow. Love the classical tone and texture of these stanzas, B.J. I may be old-school, but it's a pleasure to read verse that gives forth treasures... Thank you, and blessings for the year to come. Peace, Gershon

Thanks, Gershon, for the kind words! I don't think that's old school...just school maybe? Happy New Year to you as well :)
