The wind is calling me outside
it's exactly the right wind
to walk in the wonder
of the long avenues
that enchant the air
with swirling blossoms
and restrained, start singing
in me with joy
mixed with sorrow
for the falling, away
from life, away
from the leaf shoots
the swirling awareness
that it is almost over
however much I would have liked
to stay and respond
to the call of the wind
the calling wind
