.......a gentle, mild breeze.
............the west wind (literary)

Zephyr, in ancient Greek zephyros, was the godly personification of the west wind.
Limerick:
Once there was a zephyr
Every time he blew he caused a stir
As he moved among the trees
A gentle ravishing breeze
From east to west, and zenith to nadir.

The truth is, I first encountered this word, Zephyr, from my husband (well, he wasn't yet then). This is just one of his "netnames".
