There’s a breeze blowing
over me as I swing
in my hammock. I hear
the wind chimes sing
bree bree bree brees.
Or maybe
it’s just me setting
my fancy free,
longing to see
Bree’s blow-
tossed curls sway
breezily as she walks
up the drive.

Well, I was dropped on my head… in a university poetry writing class, but that’s another story.

Absolutely charming. I had a friend named Bree. Her parents were crazy about Hobbits and so she was given this delightful name.

How cool! I was just using it as a way to mess up the word “breeze.” Glad you enjoyed it!

Oh I do love her curls.. She sounds a true temptress. A most original choice.

Thank you, sir! A fictional temptress… purely a product of the semi-tropical breeze.

The only one I’ve known by that name is a goat brie. A tad saucy; especially when served warm. Thank you!

Very original. I love all the “ee” sounds in your poem. I work with a Bree with long curly hair so this was especially fun to read.

I’ve never known a Bree. Brie, yes! Served hot with add-ons. Not at all the same. Glad you enjoyed it!
