"Wind in the Plains" by Erik Hunger

SF&F Picture 7 out of 7 by Erik Hunger

Autumn is always special to me. This hit me walking back from classes on the way to my car when the wind picked up and stirred memories...
Ann Battelli made a painting inspired by this that has me wishing I could display them together. Please go take a look. I think they complement each other well.

Wind in the Plains

Come play with me
while the days grow short
and the nights grow long
Come play with me
chase me down in wild fields
while the wind whips up
and takes your hair
Come catch me dancing
twirling 'round beneath the sky
with horizons so
impossibly far
Come play...
come catch me
if you can
looking in your eyes
heart beating
throughout my entire world
while the wind in your hair
breathes for me.

-Lanir

18 Nov 2000	Nicole A. Cardiff	Loading... I'm going to use this for my "Those who aren't world-famous... yet!" tour, if you don't mind... grins and scritches head Sure! I like your tours. I learn stuff.
5 Feb 2001	Gabriella Jönsson	Loading... I have this weird déjà-vu feeling here. It's the line "Come play with me". I have actually used it in one of my mermaid poems (almost a year ago). A fascinating coincidence. Anyways, even if the poems were comparable, I like this much better. A beautiful description of the wind, which reminds me of my brother when he was 2 or 3. Autumn is the best time for writing poetry.
5 Feb 2001	Elfwood artist: Ann, (Click	Loading... You took me to one of my favourite places and made a marvelous picture in my mind... I'm seriously considering making a picture of the image you stirred in me. If you're all right with that, of course. (since I know the uid thingie is not going to work with me, I'm Ann, the last denizen of Loth's 682nd gallery) Hrm. The uid thingy didn't really work but I sorta hacked out an imitation. You have good stuff, I want people to be able to find you. =)
17 Apr 2001	Elizabeth Fitzgerald	Loading... sighs This is a really beautiful poem. You really have a knack for evoking memories. Living all the way over in the southern hemisphere means it's autumn right now. It's nice to get a positive view on the chill
27 Jun 2002	Santiago Iborra	Loading... Hi, came here through Ann Battelli pic. Beautiful picture for a beautiful poem. I specially like the last two verses. Really evoking!
22 Aug 2002	Maria C. Stromberg	Loading... Just touring through...This is a lovely poem. There's some wonderful images, I especially love those last few lines. You have some real talent here, thanks for sharing it!
6 Feb 2003	Alice Muffin Girl Smith	Loading... Ooo… nifty. Autumn is my favorite time, to… This reminds me of autumns past. smiles It’s nice to remember.
11 May 2003	Emily McDurman	Loading... Wow... that's really powerful and very beautiful
