A Tangerine Pinwheel

There's a tangerine-colored pinwheel 
at the top of a far-away hill

Yours the job to go and grab it,
but beware:
its way of turning 
doesn't always turn out to be fair

Yours, as well,
the job to tell
whether or not
you want things to turn out well:
you can either go up to heaven
or tumble into the pit of hell

Emagi - I Am a Pinwheel By Sai Taanand

                         Multicolored treat.
                         Huge pinwheel at my deck seat.
                         Spinning, Spring treat.

The pinwheel spins rapidly, controlled by the wind
Sadly, as some people allow themselves to be 
But, there is no freedom in that kind of movement
For no other should have the power of the wind in such a way
Instincts are like shining gems of truth deep inside
Precious to behold, yet still to take notice as the pin wheel stops
Then it is time to be led with the sparkle of one’s own soul

Pinwheel of Magic

Your golden-horned soft laughter
          Spinning
               Prancing
                    Turning 
                            Pinwheel of magic       
                                             Sliding...
                                                  My world to candy dreams.
