Spring Breeze

Spring Breeze 

spring breeze

from the ocean

fragrant

like motia at night

cool

like mother’s breath

blowing over

her child’s hot meal

she carries whispered

messages from stars

and stories

of what she has seen

as the sky

pours her out

in a wild

swirling dance, at times

at other times

in long, languorous waves

curving

around my face and body

like poem-strings

of beautiful words

and peals

of soft laughter
