the breeze that arrives before you knew you wanted it.
means A soft, gentle breeze, especially one coming from the west.
from From the Greek Zephyros, the god of the west wind — the mildest of the wind-brothers, who in myth fathered swift immortal horses and nudged spring into bloom. The name traveled through Latin (zephyrus) into Old English, then settled into English as the word for any breeze too gentle to argue with.
