Dear Wind

Hello my viewers. It has certainly been a long time since I last wrote on here! I have had a spur of creativity and am writing much faster than I have been in the past. So I thought I would add another poem to the mix. This is a poem called Dear Wind. I hope you enjoy it.

Dear Wind

Hello wind
Good afternoon, breeze
My dear friend, the cool air:
I hear you!
Rushing to greet me,
Racing through leaves and brambles
To blow through my hair
And tickle my cheeks.
You have never been good
At surprising me, dear wind.
After all, my close friends,
The trees,
Enjoy warning me of your approaching
Through the song of their branches
Swaying,
Humming like some ancient instrument
You might hear echoing
In the tongues
Of an amber fire.
You are never far from me,
Lovely breeze.
You are always there
Waiting to gust past
My bare arms.
Making me chill long enough to know
I am alive
Before you race and hide away
Like a boomerang.
Hey ho!

Dear wind!

  1. Will you write one about the Cut Bank winds that slap your cheeks and hurl the branches and brambles at you?
    That is a wonderful piece of artistry.
    I love you, Carissa.
    Thank you for sharing.
