So difficult to walk
against the storm
It’s signs keep blowing me away
The air surrounds me
and takes hold of my emotions
If the storm lays down
my heart still pounds,
strong and aching.
A soft breeze
feels like a hurricane
My breathing stops
I listen to the wind
blowing in my ears
words of love and commitment
and I hear the air
crying out your name.

The Titles Challenge Group
Listen to the wind....
You will be always in my heart
One of my favorite songs by
Tryad : The Rising
do you remember
a sky of blue
sun shining
down on you
do you remember
mountain streams
blooming flowers
and trees of green
did you ever
swim in a sea
breathing air where
air was free
tell me tell me
i want to know
about the rain
about the snow
what's it like to
lay on grass
watching the wind
push clouds past

Oh wow!
This is truly an outstanding piece of poetry! Happy to see it was awarded gold; it RICHLY deserved it!
All the best to you!!! -
This poem deserved GOLD. It was very beautiful. There's so much passion behind these words. Absolutely beautiful how you tied everything into nature and gave it distinct power and meaning. I don't have to guess about nature's role in this poem because you've specifically stated it already plainly for the reader.
-
This is a wonderfully penned poem about nature and I love the picture of the wolf here, It gives the write more power and passion along with the emotions we are left to feel thank you for sharing your work with me here on ap and also thank you for allowing me to read and comment on your work this is a very brilliantly penned poem..

Wow this is a beautiful piece and I can see how you won a trophy for it. Nicely done, by the way I loved how you used imagery and descriptive words to allow the reader to see and feel what you see and feel as you wrote this piece. I really got swept away in this poem and I loved the picture besides! I cannot wait to read more of your amazing work! Nicely done!
-
before I even read the poem, I must tell you that I love your name 'Wolf Mistress' Apparently I have the eyes of a wolf.
Now that I read it, I still love your name and I also now love the poem! Especially the second stanza! I try so hard to listen to what the wind tries to say sometimes, I know it has a voice. It's given fresh air to the world for millions of years, it must be wise now, far wiser than any other, certainly wise enough to have a voice =]
-
Loved it!
-
Even though your poem speaks of storms, it has a certain comforting feel to it. Maybe that's because I love storms. It's a beautiful and well written poem. I wish you the best in the contest

The air crying out your name is a beautiful poetic line, and was a perfect way to end the poem. Although the hurricane was there, I still felt a calming feel from the piece. Nice work on this Best wishes in the contestDove

i really love the pic you put w/this..i almost didn't even notice that there's that naked woman hugging her knees in the moon! great!!! i loved how the speaker here is so engulfed in sadness, until the wind reminds him/her that she's not alone, in a way.

Awesome. You have incorporated
these feelings into this title
very well. Storms do throw us
this way and that. But we must
stand in its face and persevere.
Good luck in the challenge.
