Who Owns the Wind?


Who owns the wind?
who possesses the heart,
who dances with the maypoles
when the ribbons stream east?

O balmy Wind, alight upon our dappled skin
truly near is the fragrant billow
pine needles languish over earth-claw roots
amid these days of butter and pansies

This I saw along the forget-me-not road
the fleecy welkin tying up our longings
the Ivy fancying to taste Sun�s breath
the briar patch ensnaring the fallen seed

Eagles circle low over bursts and buds
the berry trees wave a heavy bough
a constellation of bright ripe eyes
ever portals for harvest whispers
