Tides of the Air



The air flows soft with evening tides,
 Through open skies where birds reside.
 The flower feels the gentle sway,
 And holds the whispers of the day.
A fleeting breeze, so light, so shy,
 Carries secrets as it drifts by.
 Among the leaves, it weaves a song,
 A melody where dreams belong.
The twilight hums a tender tune,
 Beneath the watchful, rising moon.
 Stars awaken, their glow displayed,
 As dusk unveils the night’s cascade.
The branches dance, the grasses bow,
 In rhythm to the wind’s soft vow.
 Each breath it takes, each path it weaves,
 A story told by a heart belief.
And as the tides of air take flight,
 They cradle earth in calm delight.
 A fleeting gift, both rare and pure,
 A timeless balm, a soul’s allure.
