The Wind Song

[kittypaws]

I have spent the last few days
Swept away amongst the wind.
The cold and white,
Has taken over my life.

Mother Nature has stepped in
And real life has been forced out.
Brushed away with little effort,
Second to none is her method.

The same wind that brings me chill
Lays hands on other places;
And carries heat that bakes this earth
Awaiting the rains to bring wet pleasure.

Yet the wind has a voice
As I can hear it roar.
Wind has the power to create or destroy,
To be or not, but never ignored.

On the wings of wind
Many personas travel;
Like mystical fairies
They can bring hell or pleasures.

Give homage to the wind
As that is Mother Natures’ song
To just remind us
We are not that strong.

I enjoyed reading this poem - it appears to be quite simple on first reading but it provides a very vivid sense of the wind's moods and its power.

And the final stanza is a fitting close.

I like where this is coming from kitty - you seem a true child of nature.

I enjoyed the casual opening, expressed with the same nonchalance as someone saying they'd just been to the shops to buy some milk.

And I liked the conclusion:

To just remind us
We are not that strong.
but I think it could be stronger if you could find a specific example that proves this, rather than just state it as a generality.

But overall, it's nicely expressed.

I liked the relaxed flow of the piece. It echoes the subject matter quite well.

Thank you, everyone. I like things simple and as you said blank/verse I am a child of the earth. I would gladly appreciate any guidance you can share with me to help me be a better writter.

It is appreciated.....
