Analysis of Zephyr Breeze
Sailing high-speed over seas
are wind directed sprints
Painting color right to seize
are superb, vibrant tints
Wafting on a zephyr breeze
are jasmine scented hints
Hugging in a gentle squeeze
are photographic prints
Sipping tonic aimed to tease
are prepared julep mints
Doing all the stuff we please
are cheerful season stints
