The trees on the hill had nothing to say They would keep their dreams till another day

Interpretation of a Dream


summer came
and i wished 
i was there
cool valleys, rollicking water
instead of 
the hot city
where he 
stood at the corner and wooed 
the wind 
instead of me
but she did not even come
only sending 
a gentle breeze as a reminder
of her power

there was 
no enveloping tan sand
nor glistening leaves of green
here
it was just 
sticky sweet hot
and the wind never came
because 
i never called it
though he 
coaxed his voice dry.
