Identity 1 : Thinly Veiled

==============================
Thinly Veiled

Air
Between branches
And in lungs
Of the dead and the dying;

Breeze
In greener boughs
And grandmother's tales
And lovers' lanes;

Wind:
In Kenneth's willows,
As panic strikes
Numbed pain;

Gales!
Every day in farms,
And fresh residue
Of the outbound;

Storms:
Outdone only
By old hearts that find
Very little in names.
==============================

Hat tip to The Wind In The Willows by Kenneth Grahame, one of my favourite books of all time.
