TWT–Alpine Sting

Prompt: Wind

Beware the föhn. Bows branches in your mind, wailing eerie pain. See the shadow of him; a spot without rain.

Artwork: Föhn Wind by Paul Klee

    Sometimes 20 words is all it takes. Thanks for the education. Mistral, I would’ve known!🙂

      Thank you. Yes, it’s quiet the legend here and when it blows there’s much whispering. Is it that way with the Mistral?

    sounds eerie; had to look up ‘fohn’; not familiar with that type of wind —

      Thanks for commenting, yeah, It’s a weird warm wind that has lots of legend behind it here. Now, that I’ve experienced it, I can say it is chilling.
