Two-Faced Wind in Double Arch

December 30, 2017 Jeff Reed
arches-1565354_1920.jpg

The wind in Double Arch proves

its agility, its ability to keep

its two-faced Aeolian engine

sending currents curling through

on the way to dust-devil mischief

while lulling the slender lip fern to sleep.


Double Arch reminds me of Ecclesiastes 7:18: "It is good that you should take hold of the one without letting go of the other; for the one who fears God comes forth with both of them."
