The Wind Woman
by
Annie Stokes
Blowing softly
Blowing sweetly
Like music bubbling
up from the sea
Wind across your
face
Blowing hair onto
your sunburned cheek
You in all your
essence
The mountains you've
climbed
The rivers you've
crossed
The world knew you
by name
And they said it
often
An explorer, along
with Magellan and Pizzaro
The wind whispered
your name
You charmed the
world
That's what you
are
A wind woman
A wind woman who
charmed the world
Love, Annie
