Oh wretched wind . .

Missing image

 

 

There was a time

When I was exhilarated

As the wind played games

With my hair . . .

Tugging teasingly at my clothes

 

But now it is an irritation . .

Something hard to tolerate

But what can one do . .

But pander to its thoughtlessness

 

There was a time . .

When everything was fun

Joy spilled across the garden

In the form of leaves and blossom

Oh the freshness of everything

 

How grand it was then . .

Sadly those times have gone

But now the wretched wind . .

Just ignores my melancholy

In its ignorance

    This is so nice.

    "Joy spilled across the garden
    What a wonderful thought!

    I really enjoyed reading this, even though the character was irritated by the wind, it's seems a peaceful poem to me.

    It goes so well with the picture too.
