Quietude

Thanks to skinner_jennifer & Pia (Highhat)

I whisper to the wind
songs under my breath
words for me remember
all the orange leaves
dance down from trees
twirling persuasively
I spin looking upward
then laughing and run
home to write my poem
thank for inspiration
helps put me in words.

Translated from the French it literally means 'the joy of life' - used to describe something that has a lot of spirit and love ;)
