Gush of Wind

"Gush of Wind" is my second poem on the hot summer day that Northern California had a couple days back. Although this poem seems a little mixed in terms of heat and wind, the wind is the main theme in this party. This is maybe not one of my best poems. Enjoy "Gush of Wind."

Gush of Wind

A long hot day in the sun
Kids ran into streets and behind corners
They laughed, talked, and played with others.
Like there was nothing else in the world.

I was too hot to play, the sweat breaking in.
Summer starts and I feel it all so well.
So that's when it came, the thing I want most.
That little gush of wind was my last hope.

It came with no time to spare.
And blew the hair out of my eyes.
It felt good and it felt fresh.
To finally see some coolness there.

The sun kept bright and the wind had just died.
And though I felt sad and I felt I want more.
There was just something I couldn't point to.
That one moment that wind will come again.
