Wind

Wind 

No chimes on the green 
     mountain as this wind 
          wafts amid the glens. 
Now hear the only sound:
     rustling leaves belong 
to mountain and to wind. 
Seasons rotate as affairs 
wheel: wait for New Year,
then burn your prayers.

Prayers in the Wind 

No chimes on our green 
     mountain as this wind 
          wafts amid the glens. 
Now hear the only sound:
     rustling leaves belong 
to mountain and to wind. 
Our seasons rotate as affairs 
     wheel: we wait for New 
Year then burn our prayers.
