2015
Unruly gale close to Summer
Bring with you the scorching heat
Like a rabid animal
Chasing people to the shade
The swirling leaves will fall
Down to shores of peaceful lakes
On evenings just escaped
As Autumn fades away
A tiger waiting for its prey
The biting chill of winter
Set forth a trap of cold despair
On the pebbled roads I walk
Like ladies on an ornate swing
That carry notes that young girl’s sing
And continue on, will of Spring
The wind on its escapade
