Exhilaration is the Breeze That lifts us from the Ground And leaves us in another place Whose statement is not found – Returns us not, but after time We soberly descend A little newer for the term Upon Enchanted Ground –
Exhilaration Is the Breeze - meaning Summary
Lifted Into Altered Perspective
The poem likens moments of exhilaration to a breeze that briefly lifts people away from ordinary life into an unnameable, transient state. That uplift leaves no explicit record and does not permanently carry one away; after a while the person descends back to daily life. The final image stresses a subtle transformation: returning "a little newer" to the same ground, which is now shaded by the memory of enchantment.
