Wind


Wind…
 
The “wanna-be’s” ooh-ed! and aah-ed! sure enough, I reckon so,
at the sheer immensity of the “impressive”-monstrosity. Okay!?
 
Dreaming of the “castle”-queen waltzing the myriad-room floors
shining bright sunshine-glow---ooh!...hallways on the second-floor
wide enough to park a cherry-red chariot (with room on either
side for  easy egress)---aah!...and the “gourmet”-kitchen, elegant-
dining room and the wide verandas! Oh! My! Oh! My! To---be…Mine!
 
If---only…I had married well!? Ah! Sad-lament! Mother…knew!?
 
Enters the errant-wind---a slight breath…or a howling frigid-cold torment!?
 
Pray (simple-humble) I---me best-wish ever…to be that Freedom!-swirl!
 
Born---Yonder! on Mother Nature’s whim…a thought in fashion-Liberty!
 
Basking in the tropic-sun---like a sail-fish…absorb the very light-of-Life!
A stir---Mother-Joy!...to force! An ocean-crest high-toss to whitecap-spray!
 
An island---in the path…to cadence-sway a palm-tree coconut-stolen fall.
 
Around the sailing-ships---of sea and air…a smile! The mainland yonder!
 
Beach-sand white---mountain-thrust…verdant-plains and rivers-run! And, I!
 
Stands there---a house…Wood! Stone! Born of labor & toil! Delight!
 
Arrives the “Royal” King & Queen---elite…count coins-gold to bear.
 
In the eves---my quiet reserve to cool…or a winter-howl remind.
 
And---on…to catch the Spring-time thaw and rains and warming-sun.
 
Might raise lake placid-surface---summer-call…to cool with thunderstorm.
 
Shake-shimmy red-yellow-gold---Mother-finery…to vacant-chase leaf-tag!
 
To ice-sculpt---dazzle-white snow-drift…stark-daguerreotype black-white!
 
Only---time to Live &  Love… absent-count me coins silver-gold defiled!
 
And, in some end---so I am and…so I be!
Amen!
