puddles on the ground, scatter my reflection, breaking mirrors, 100 years bad luck Thunder, thunder in the sky, why do you follow me just tell me why my own gray cloud, It follows me, reflects my personality was it the ocean, following behind? subtle shadows, none darker than me. Sometimes it seems as if I have grown roots, all the way around this world, none go inside, all of me so far above the earth, stuck in the sky, I'm cursed. Just to tell you. I am not depressed. ![]() Never be normal! |

Wind, you are not cursed! You just have a magnetic personality and are attracting all the elements! Great write! ~ hugs Linda |

great write, kinda sad, and I'm glad you said you aren't depressed, because that's what I would have thought. |

The calm of your poetry sits in large contrast to your website personality. The thing about growing up is both of those will level out. I enjoy watching your words grow. Mike |
