Zephyr (NaPoWriMo 2022 #23)
Walking into
or with
the wind,
facing to
or away,
the buffeting
as cardigan pockets
flap to the flurry.
Seeds, kernels and leaves
caught and carried,
bewildered
by wild breeze,
are percussion
over concrete kerbs.
Into the wind
sounds behind
disappear
within silence,
alongside
only air
graces the ear.
The gust
can carry
warmth with it,
or press a chill
through to bones.
