The Wind Carries me to places, places yet unknown It sweeps my mind before all time When only one could groan The Wind Has always carressed, my hands, my hair, my face I reach to touch it, and then again, it reaches back as friend The Wind I speak, into as whispers, it's breezes of secrets tell Me, time and, time and, time again It's time to live and live well. --------------------- E.M.L. |

To have a relationship with nature, and wind in particular, is a wonder and joy as you have so aptly rendered here, Ms E. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

The Wind Has always carressed, my hands, my hair, my face I reach to touch it, and then again, it reaches back as friend I love how you describe this here; it is so poignant and true. "reaches back as a friend"...awesome image. It is almost as if it is a part of you throughout. So nicely done |

The wind has been my friend, my dance partner... my enemy (hurricane)... and still I'm drawn to it. *S* And I absolutely love your poem! |

Suthern! Thank you for the like! Yes, I'm with you, always have been drawn to the wind. You, are a strong woman to have had to contend with Big Katrina. Would like to hear about it over coffee, one day. Ms. E |

This is an interesting concept; having a friendly relationship with the wind. I feel you are spot on with that; the wind getting close, hugging us, scruffling out hair as a tease and so on. You have written a lovely nature poem for me to enjoy! Thank you. |

I've always had the notion the wind is a living thing... this only adds to that feeling. To hear it... to feel it... to *know it's calling you. I really liked this one Ms. E. Michael |
