The Wind Comes to My Rescue
Even in the unflinching heat of night I find respite
In repose, the macramé hammock of youth cradles
The wind comes to my rescue in my sweltering
Humidity hangs heavy in South Florida
The innocence of night entices
At once I’m drawn to the stars
Scattered in the sky like night lights
Hung perfectly like pictures on my wall
The moon holds its usual place
Breathless
It seems the moon breathes for the sky
Its omnipotence holds my earth captive

Beautiful and most identifiable images in this poem of the night sky and air. Well done Katie
Welcome to my world. I live in South Florida,,,,,,,, The poem "The Wind Comes to My Rescue" explores themes of solace and connection with nature during a restless night. It reflects on the comfort provided by the wind and the beauty of the night sky, capturing a moment of introspection and serenity amidst the heat and humidity of South Florida.
The moon can be our saving grace at time Katie, its beauty can bring so much joy to us all.
