When the wind blows Aug. 14, 2025

 

 

The wind glows through the leaves and I imagine my fingers moving through your hair; I paint the image of your face on the landscape, though you are not really here, this stirring of the overheated world we live in, sweat over, and pine about, not able to fell it all for real, the gentle kiss on your moist lips, the imagined press of hips, the slow sway in a dance that can only grow more intense the more we engage in it, the wind scented with your scent, stirs up a need n me I know I cannot satisfy, this late in the season, this so distant in the world.

The wind gusts stir up the leaves as I peek at the previous fruit dangling under the canopy, and I can never pry loose no matter how I try.

The wind glows the leaves and I cannot help but think of you.
