Calling The Wind

Folder: 
Nature/Environment

The air is hot, dry and suffocating

Tis choking, thinning; Life is dying.

In the clouds; no less, hiding.

I whistle, calling the wind; He hears

my cry. A cold chill touches me,

Pricking my senses, soaking my bones;

A summer chill disposes. I look up

to the sky, The wind is whining nigh.

Moaning for an evening rain.

Trees are trembling; leaves swaying fast

Like storms brewing an evening mass.

Of a roaring lion sending signal tales

From the blasting winds,

Fearsome and turbulent;

Rain ensues sputtering sounds.

Now it's calm like sweet repose.
