Whispers on wind

   Whispers that spread across the
wind. Caresses the leaves until they fall.

    Ah the warm crunching aroma of the leaves.
Falling, blowing in my face. Sweet
memories of children tossing them in air.

    I slow my pace just to breathe.
Closing my eyes I soak up the moment.
Oh it tickles my eyelashes with
sheer water.

    Opening my eyes. I shake my
head. Chanting in my mind, " silly,
silly me."

    A halting beat strikes my
heart and then I smile. Saying
my secret of childhood on the wind.

     Did you hear me giggle?
