When a sudden breeze
skitters over calm water,
silvering the surface,
briefly wrinkling
the glass of the lake,
I am able to track
the course of the wind,
trace its path
as it ruffles the water.
Another unexpected pleasure;
watching wind.
This small gift,
moving with swift grace,
carrying brief enchantment,
capturing the eyes of the watcher.
