Travel By The Wind
By Babatunde Lamidi
Cool breeze sweeps in
Blue clouds hover
Dry leaves swirl in dance mood
Tingling feeling shivers down the spine
Captivating is the city beyond the vines
Thoughts of how to get there shimmer
Only to be saddened by the distance that lingers
You’ve painted a calm scene. One that makes me want more.
