The Storm





Imagine that 
When the wind blew 
It blew not for everyone 
But Only for you 

Not gentle or weak 
This shapely breeze 
But a storm that which 
Your soul it did seize 

A raging 
Shaping 
Changing 
Typhoon 

That mingled 
With sunshine 
And rained a
Yellow monsoon 

Imagine then 
That the wind it did cease 
No more did you feel
It touch on your cheek 

How quiet  
The nights and days
Now that storm
Has subsided 

Left only 
With the trees 
Their leaves 
Unrequited
