A Soft Breeze

I've been very busy this day
I started just a little before dawn
Blowing, here and blowing there
Making sounds like a little yawn

I like to blow so gentle
In the morning light
Bring fresh air to all
Who've had a restless night

I like to pick up speed
Just as I reach the hill
I see kids with their new kites
When I blow it gives them a thrill

If Mom has hung some snow white sheets
Out on the line to dry
I'll whip them with a mighty blast
And send them flying high

I like being called a big blow
Also a gentle little breeze
So soft and clean, for all to breathe
Some of you may even sneeze

    This is cute. I am reminded of a child looking for some mischief to get into. Good job

    The wind is a very complex thing sometimes. It can change instantly. I can totally relate to the "some of you may even sneeze" part. I have allergies in the spring time. Great job!

    Lovely, i felt like i was floating with the breeze reading this

    I like to pick up speed
    Just as I reach the hill
    I see kids with their new kites
    When I blow it gives them a thrill

    the thought of the breeze playing with the children is so playful and effective.

    WTG! Good luck in the contest
