WIND IN CHARGE
-for the little half-timbered house in Oberursel, Germany
The wind has found its voice today
whistling through the window
announcing the arrival of fall
It sweeps through the house
brushing a cool kiss
on an unsuspecting cheek
No longer taking a backseat
to the sun’s gentle heat,
the wind seizes control
Teasing the leaves
rumpling the feathers
of the birds nestled in the branches
Toying with crumpled oak leaves
spinning and floating aimlessly
over quarried granite cobblestones
The wind is in charge today
celebrating the change in season
impatient to stir things up a bit
Feel the anticipation…
what might happen
with the wind in charge?
