i went for a walk today and caught the scent of you on the wind earthen, sweet, and dry, horses and hay undeniably you in an instant a beautiful breeze of early memories blew in and danced around inside my mind tangling up with my heart you’ve been gone for years but there you were with me again in an instant I was that little girl on the farm chasing chickens climbing hay bales and riding horses together, we were racing sticks on the river eating fresh peas from the garden roasting “weenies” over the fire and watching the sunset glow orange and lavender above the western mountains i miss you, grandpa thank you for the memories and thank you for visiting me today on the wind
