New Mexico Wind By Terri Pickard

The wind in New Mexico blows and blows

It messes up your hair and curls your toes

It plants dirt in your ears, eyes, and up your nose

Animals hide not even a bird crows

The grass dries up and blows away

Flowers bend in half almost as if to pray

Hoping for a shower, a light mist, or spray

If you live in New Mexico there’s one thing to say

There is a good chance the wind will blow today
