love affair with the breeze

to drink the liquor of your love
to breathe in your parfum
O yes
to rest
in your caress,
to drift with you through afternoons.

i love your lightness
i fear your force,
i hate your mystery
yet i trust your course;

you call me to dance
to rush 'cross the long skies,
to plunge into deep valleys
and to crest the steep rise.

and i live for the way
that you say my name
how it whispers through trees
how it wanders down lanes.

O, no other thing
shall compare, i believe,
to this beautiful, breathtaking
love affair with the breeze.
