Wind

As the wind whipped by

I heard her whisper

I saw her touch trees

and watched the fall of their leaves


She wrapped around homes

danced with plants

and peoples

as she reached up toward steeples


She frustrated all who resisted

with quick turns

she laughed and laughed

then twisted


Her presence you knew

as the hats blew

she stole glances

with her whistles and prances


All the while

she smiled with glee

at the day

and the play she created


Wind whipping by

catch her hand

and you will know

it was all a show


Mary
