I stepped outside as twilight sighed,Where dusk and day in hush abide,And there she came—no sound, no bind—A whisper called: Come dance, come find.
She brushed my cheek with playful grace,Then twirled the leaves in soft embrace,Around my feet her fingers curled,A silent rhythm stirred the world.
She tugged my coat, she spun me 'round,We moved without a step or sound,No music played, yet still we swayed,To melodies the air had made.
Through fields of gold and shadowed trees,She led me laughing with the breeze.The stars peeked out to see us glide—Two fleeting ghosts in moonlight's tide.
But winds, they wander, never stay,She kissed my hand, then slipped away.And though the night grew still and thin,My soul kept dancing with the wind.
