A gust of hot wind.



A gust of hot wind.

The gust of hot wind
came through the windows.
There was a sudden bang
and the windows closed their eyes.

The weather was stuffy.
A cloud of dust was rolling,
with few shedding leaves,
on the alley in that evening.

The home returning birds,
were suddenly shocked.
They took shelter inside the thickets,
and their wings were locked.

The gusty wind disordered the books,
laid open on the table.
My personal things became messy
as if they were destroyed by gale.

A speck of dust,
went inside my eye.
One eye was shut,
another was alive.
