Blowing, freshening, blustery gusts
bracing, racing,
whisking, frisking,
decluttering clinging, clogging cobwebs –
cast out fast by whooshing blast,
– I am invigorated, no more shrinking, sinking,
gloomy, weary weight oppressing, stressing –
breeze brightened eyes;
leaf litter crisped up, skitters, and flies,
complexions flushed and towels fluffed, 
clouds scurrying, people hurrying
swoop, scoot and scuttle into dens calm and cosy 
soul singing, ears ringing, cheeks chafed and rosy.

Hi Rhiannon,

I could do with some of your descriptions in your poem. It's far too hot for me at the moment. That's why I really enjoyed this one.

Thank you for sharing.

Jenny.

You have really gone to town with this Inspiration Point, Rhiannon. The reworking and adaptation of old pieces was cleverly done and suitably rewarded. Well done.

Thanks, Luigi. I wanted to have a look to see how I had used onomatopoeia in the past, in various contexts. (I constantly have to check the spellng of the word!) Rhiannon
