Bile

Death. Taxes. The weather. What're you gonna do? Another ode to mountain life here.

 

     Bile

The wind is a shrew

Howling madly

Her dissatisfactions;

Her dementia

Makes you tremble

In unison

This has been a day of it

Trees whipped madly

Like bad children

Anything not nailed down

Flung like bile

The house screeches

From every crack

With you, too, mad,

All walled in,

Tending the fire

Fending the terror

The wind is a hellion

It smites where

You’re most vulnerable

Places you haven’t visited

And wouldn't want to

For aeons.

 

Copyright Julianza Shavin circa 2004

Nicely expressed, Julianza. You have effectively personified the wind. Coincidentally, it is windy here as well today. Love and blessings,

Regis

Oh, I like this one: stunning imagery and mood you set with the wickedness of weather, death and taxes. Well done, Julianza!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
