    A Good Wind

     A Good Wind

    A good wind
    makes everything better:
    kites fly higher
    boats sail faster
    laundry dries in flapping rhythm.
    Footprints on the beach
    lose their man-made appearance,
    start to resemble
    alien landing sites
    on the surface
    of the moon.

    There is something slightly cynical about the evidence of humans left upon planet earth. Is this "Save the world," or "Don't interupt me, I'm reading, just now?" A good wind carries the scent of flowers, spice, and the approach of a lover. I liked your poem and where it took me. Harv

    Thanks! It was kind of "I'd rather be without humans now because they mess up nature's beauty" kind of thing. Nature speaks to me so much. I love it's beauty and basic-ness. No pretences (pretenses?) or games; no lies. Wow, I do sound cynical! Thanks for reading my stuff; I appreciate it.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
