Two days ago in a white fluffy dress
the air was so strong
that my dress lifted and
twirled the wind.
It was not just any wind,
it was my friend the wind.
The wind was my friend because
it was singing a song,
it smelled like roses
all over again.
The wind gave me hope
the wind gave me heart-shaped love.
