Don’t you love the sound of the wind <br />As it whispers through the trees? <br />A delicate swish some times <br />And at others it’s quite a furious breeze <br /> <br />We need it to pollinate plants and such <br />What would we do without wind? <br />Picking up seeds and pollen <br />And off to unknown places it sends <br /> <br />It cools things down when it’s stifling hot <br />Blows the dust off of dirty ‘ole things <br />There’s a refreshing cool breeze off the ocean <br />Ah yes, many wonderful things the wind brings <br /> <br />And then there’s the amazing sport <br />That needs wind in order to send <br />Balloons flying up into the sky <br />In order for them to transcend <br /> <br />So when we think about how important <br />The whispering wind is to us all <br />Think about being in a balloon without it <br />For down to the ground it would fall!<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-whispering-wind-3/
