wind
whisper tenderly
a velvet melody
while sailing decussate romantically
with gentle sensation passionately, emotionally
generously
show wondrous tremendous exuberant presentation
of refined beautiful magnificence
that only influence
can bestow
wind

Neato... You began with a gust of wind - built up to a tempest - and worked back down to  your original line... I like it..

Alrighty,

Would you kindly tell me what a wedge poem is? And the guidelines?  They sound like they are fun to write as per your poem on wind, and I would love to give it a try.

Thanks,

okay, basically what you are trying to do is write a poem that has each line starting with a word, and each word after that will have 1 more syllable than the previous word  in that line...read the poem again and count the syllables...enjoy!
Thanks for reading I'll be looking for yours soon!
