my father is rattled when the wind blows from the east

my father is rattled when the wind blows from the east

he is a dashed rock a greybeard

and he is a boy and bicycle

chasing storms he always knew

the air goes green

scabby knees hounding thunder

from the sky

a lifetime of windswept and seachange

attuned craggy mottled locked

in to every 

blister and cajole

what is it like to know the wind so old man

or is it you who are known to them
