MOOD

I see darkness, don't you?

Billowing, boiling, growing,
small on that horizon first,
growing slightly, then nearer,
and larger, a loom of clouds
spinning threads of mood.

The breath, the wind
falls silent, but for a while,
until it touches you, that first
breeze: cool, refreshing
banking the humid summer heat,
refreshing your mood.

The air thickens
and the breeze quickens,
and just there! You feel it,
more than hear, so low
the faint thrum of the coming storm,
and you sense the change in
the mood.

All you can do, is watch
the tower form above you,
darkening and roiling in the airs
above the hills,
is that a face there?
surely a nose and mouth,
and such a mood.

Dance for me, Storm,
flashing form,
booming voice,
as we two rejoice
in our mood.
