EDITA'S POETRY
WIND CREATES POETRY
where does the wind
bring such a big handful of rain?
a day is as clean
as a freshly scrubbed floor:
I am too shy to come in
and pronounce my name
when the wind carries
such a big handful of rain
without any purpose
in the dump of crushed days
someone is looking for the ropes:
let's tie the wind
to the most beautiful pole in the world
let's make it serve
instead of roaming across yards and fields
the wind is calling upon
pollen leaves snow
and everything follows it
not knowing where
but flying sweeping soaring
