Windblown
August 1987


“Windblown,” New Era, Aug. 1987, 26

Windblown

by Wendy Wilhite

Silence sprained by

whistling winds as

a baby breeze dances

among grass blades,

tilting sprouted

toadstools and

tangling clusters of

morning glories,

ending in a dizzy swirl

of crimson leaves

in rain gutter whirlpools.
