beneath a crows silent wings,
softly gives and takes.

fierce storms on Saturday nights

Rain on the water
A symphony of the new
Rippling chords, rebirth.

My breath comes slowly.
The breeze's smell reminds me
of roses. It's time.

Wind rustles the leaves

hot fast-food breakfast
with others eating alone?

wet night harmony
thick forests whisper
songs of love to a wild moon
murmured with the wind

Chaotic dark sky
Suddenly grows calm and still:
The eye of the storm

he's angry; his life bores him
sleet begins to fall

riding on the gentle winds,
to meet the full moon.

Of wind among the treetops
What has it just lost

or smell winter snow

leave no footprints in the snow
stealthily hunting

rattle the small quiet town-
bullies in the sky
