Windmill -- Lines: 27
A child's toy
magnified
A giant's plaything
Blades turn slowly
faster
faster
Spinning, whirring
churning.
The child laughs
See my toy spinning, Mamma!
Wind has become electricity.
Power, harnessed
power magnified
power distributed.
Wind dies down - blades
slowing
slowing
coming to a halt.
Power at rest.
Power in waiting.
The child doesn't want
the toy to stop spinning
Huff-and-puff I'll start it up again
But the child must wait
till Mother Nature
Sends the wind again
to the toy.




Love this one
