Whispering wind

Soft swathes of September wind

stroke my welcoming skin,

its warm touch offers solace

to my stationary form.

A slow slight cadence

and a flighty rhythm,

this wind it soothes me.

Eyes closed shut so tightly

that sleep begins its

slow inward stroll

to silently steal my waking world,

and deliver me to the dream domain

where the calming wind

continues to hold me in its sway.

This poem speaks of September and no other month, with its soporific ambience.
Thanks

Quite a seductive idea and perfect for the season Jon. All is soft at the edges and alluring to the mind.
