I long for the south wind, blowing fair. <br />off of the Gulf, gently through my hair. <br /> <br />I long for the scented breezes of Spring, <br />I long for the Mockingbirds that sweetly sing. <br /> <br />I long for new grass from the Earth, <br />For swollen seeds bringing new birth. <br /> <br />I long for the sun high in the sky, <br />And fluffy clouds that gently fly. <br /> <br />I long for Spring and warm dry feet, <br />I hate the cold, I long for heat. <br /> <br />12/27/13 Alton Texas<br /><br />Juan Olivarez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-long-for-the-south-wind/
