The wind twirls around me1
Pulling my hair to the side2
Scents of apples and berries 3
Drifting along in it’s4
Comforting breath5
I look up at the sky6
The wind departs the clouds7
Letting the sun beam down 8
Like lights on a stage9
I hear a howl far away10
Faintly drifting along11
It ripples12
Waves of invisible water13
Splashing against the grass14
And I15
I shudder with the breeze16
And wrap my coat around me17
Silky fingers dancing around18
The trees’19
Nimble forms20
This is the nature of wind.21

I really liked this. I have to say one of your best poems yet. Really decriptive. -
Wow, that is powerful imagery. I felt my shoulders droop in complete relaxation even though I have some anger against the wind...You kept it going too, and I feel soothed of my problems. My favorite was:
Wait...lol, I can't find something to single I ended up highlighting it all. But I started here:
"Scents of apples and berries
Drifting along in it’s
Comforting breath"
Good luck in the contest!!!
