As it ruffles through the trees.
God is blowing his breath.
When the storms come,
Could it be He sneezed?...

dressing twigs, leaves and branches…
some wind like tinsels

Sunshine on deck chair
The taste of hazelnut coffee
Canaries songs fill the air
Peaceful contentment
As breeze ruffles hair....

Brushed timeless in youth's inner light, dreams flow
like ruffles on dress stitched blue - 
no fence long legs can't climb.

Warm nights by the sea
Salty air enters windows
Full moon's reflection
Guiding light on the ocean
Gentle breeze ruffles palm trees

In the morning dew the dove lightly ruffles 
Escaping the breeze from pollen's sightly scuffles

He basks all day in his iris spring 
Proudly plumage, prairie king 

His chirps unto love 
Forever amiss 
Caressing his wing 
Concealing her kiss...

The way your hair ruffles my face,
The way your laugh makes my heart race;
You keep me wanting you more,
It's only you who I adore;
How you make me feel,
Is like nothing else so real;
Only with you do I feel this way,
O this and any other day....

Stars wrapped in eiderdown sky 
between cloud ruffles peering,
scintillatingly displayed celestial ornaments 
on which craving souls suspend heart wishes, 
yearning satisfaction 
as ardently as star worlds shine.

Feel the wind,
as she ruffles your hair.
For she has travelled far, and wide,
and now she is here.
She has swept the icy mountain tops,
and ruffled the ocean oh so blue.
Left her mark upon the desert sand,
and shaken many a tropic palm,
on her way to caress you....

Summer's breeze ruffles my hair
while pale moonlight glows
and waves kiss the sandy shore
as the calm tide flows.
A Whippoorwill fills
the night with rhythmical songs
in sweet throaty trills.
