Spring Wind

Today's napowrimo prompt at readwritepoem was "Word Salad." I started with these words: whooshing, wanting, wind, spring, fresh.

So much whooshing and
wanting on the winds of a
spring storm—Change me oh

change me cries the fresh
air. No dry leaves to rustle
about, no deadness

to whistle on through.
Only a disconcerting
desire for something
whooshingly
wonderfully
new.

    I like all the "wh-" sounds that echo the wind. Very compelling.
