waltz of the wind

arqios

 

Golden reeds sway in the summer breeze,

sometimes moving as one, sometimes leaping offbeat—

not silent, but full of voice— shouting, singing,

bright little melodies alive with motion.

They brush past and gently kiss these cheeks,

soft as morning light.

        Enjoyed. Like in the Picture, during my Walks in the Countryside - and it being hot at the Moment- it was Wonderful to fill the Cool breeze across my face, and hear the Sound of the Wind in the the trees . Then the birds singing, Butterflies weaving around. Can't beat Summer. Good one.

                Seeing as I rarely get any cryptic meanings, I thought the title meant this was gonna be about baked beans or sprouts! heehee. Bit windy!

                  Beautiful words, Rik. It's a beautiful Sunday here and your pic and words just made it all the better. "Sometimes Leaping offbeat," made me think in a way of music. such that it drew a clearer image of the "reeds" in the wind. - Phil A.

                  • arqios

                    Thanks Phil! The musical 🎢 allusions were synchronised and syncopated intent; thanks for harping on that. RikπŸ™πŸ»πŸ•ŠοΈ
