love affair

windy wild hearts

I have a love affair with the wind

The only touch

I surrender to

Behind steering wheels

Weaving dreams

With soft fingers

Grazing through the sky

Pulling stars closer

To a heart

Who only feels

Free

When the tires

Tread faster than

The limit on the signs

Restricting human speed

Limiting designs

Of coded DNA

I fly through the night

Open arms

Disguised as wings

Those dotted lines

Don’t mind

As the vessel glides

Over its stretched body

Smiling under tar

At the passion in my voice

As I belt to the breeze

The indescribable truth

Of existence

The tender touch

Of a moonlit sky

Creates connection

Of a belonging

My mind yearns

For the silences

I surrender

To the wheel

To the wind

To the wild

I am

Free.

About the Creator

Veronica

I am the moss silken on watered stones, rooted deep in rich soil. Earthen creature, I am the night sky -starry and strayed from the forgotten path of poets - I am, the chatter from the iron rails rattling as the train carries itself home.
