Nature's Chaos

Lady Wind Visits

by Santiago2

She indulges joy of movement over
Fields of grain that sway below her
breast, as billows roll throughout
inhaling summer's heat.

At dawn she sweeps a mirrored lake
whose surface shudders, now awake.
Move on - No rest - No time for doubt-
Her task is not complete.

Savannas bow beneath her gaze.
A stand of willows in the haze,
Proud trees submit, turn inside out,
Deprived of all conceit.

Dispersing clouds she leaves a pattern
of curls and swirls and ions scattered. 
Defiant crow is tossed about,
Concedes a rare defeat.

She halts her frantic wingless pace,
Her mood and willfulness displaced.
Caprice? Perhaps--or just blown out.
Now calm, she'll soon repeat.
