People Are Like Weather

People Are Like Weather

.

.

Forecasts aside...

They come to you
when you're dancing on moss
in the green light of dusk

carrying the sound of leaves
and sand and twigs
and the play of the breezes

and they wrap around you
like the wind through trees
and ferns and bramble -

Then they're gone.
