The Air moves by with a rush and a sigh
A brisk or a gentle blowing
It travels unfettered, wild and free
Raising restless ripples with its going.

The breeze goes gamboling
Along the mountain trails
It moves the branches of trees about
As it moans and sings and wails.

A cooling north wind scatters clouds
Tosses colorful leaves about
It crisps the days of autumn
And turns hardy people out.

Pitiless winds of winter
Shriek across the frozen land
A time for inner reflection
Turning to others with a gentle hand.

Warming winds awaken the Earth
Sending the cold of winter on its way
It stirs the life in growing things
And freshens a summer day.
