Oh mighty magic wind! <br />Tender twigs gently dance <br />And green boughs nod, <br />Showing your impalpable presence. <br />Aroma of jasmine and rose <br />You fetch from gardens <br />Evoke my tiny nerves <br />To fly, to sing, to dream <br />With the dancing white angels. <br /> <br />A dry little seed, I see, <br />Floats on you free, <br />Carrying life within <br />May in future be <br />A huge banyan or herb <br />And one day will dance <br />Again in your presence. <br /> <br />Like a shepherd, <br />You chase the clouds <br />To wet the wide lands. <br />Oh! you enter into <br />The bellows of harmoniums <br />And flow as sweet music. <br />You rub some throats <br />And become divine songs. <br /> <br />Oh mighty magic wind! <br />But I can tie you down <br />At my wish and will: <br />I breathe you in and out. <br />But at last when you win, <br />You go out, <br />I am all out.<br /><br />J thampi Jayasingh<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/wind-38/
