It blew in with the wind

It blew in with the wind
I think it was a Thursday
Like a breath – hot and fragrant
I thought it was my mood
“You look distracted” they said
But now I see it was Love

Hi jo. I love this. I like 'I think it was a Thursday' and the first person matter-of-fact style.

Lovely for Valentine's Day.

Love the delicacy of this; very subtle and seductive.


Best,

This is so fresh and sweet, an unpretentious poem which lifts the spirits to read it. Will never feel the same about Thursdays again.

Hi

I am just reading through the recent archive so am a bit late with my comments.

It is interesting though which poems instantly draw comment and which don't and which I am interested in straight away.

I like this - simple and clean.

Of the moment - well expressed. Thanks
Tina
