Just leave me alone To contemplate the wind. The wind knows no boundaries Feels no pain or loss Can delight or destroy Is enigmatic and elusive Changes course without warning Has no heart or soul Feels no regret... A little bit like you. 2-2-2016

Not just wanting some quiet time to contemplate, but to deal with a devastating hurt . The lines "Has no heart or soul, Feels no regret, a little bit like you" tells of the perceived betrayal. Well written, Connie. Hope all is well~ Warren:)

All is well, but pain purged through poetry has a cathartic affect and helps one release anger. Thank you very much for seeking out my Please poem Warren. I appreciate that very much. Cheers, Connie : ) xxoo

I appreciate that Messoh. I was upset with my mate and vented through this poem. That is why the metaphor. ; )

Thanks a lot Andrea. I entered it. It just has the minimum of the ten lines required and he mentioned he doesn't care for prose, but mine is free verse. Fingers crossed. I am enjoying my day reading poetry. Please forgive me messing up the post at PFT with your poem. I think I is all there. It didn't look like that when I posted it. I don't know what happened? It is the Feb. PC poem list. : 0

"To contemplate the wind." Wonderful theme for a Haiku. Ooooooowwwww! The subject of this message must be uncool. Love, daver

I vent when someone upsets me, through poetry. Fortunately not that often. Thank you Daver. I hope you are doing well. Much Love on this Valentine's Day. Connie

You really surprised me with that ending line! Very poignant. You describe a complex soul, and even more complex emotions with this introspective piece. Love the enigmatic mood of this.

Thank you Tim. It was meant to have a metaphoric message. ; )

It's okay to be this way too. For you write about something sad, I mean. An interesting take on the wind. The wind can be fickle, but it also brings us some warm weather at times. But also snow.

I wrote this some time ago. It is meant to be a pure metaphor. I love the wind, but sometimes it can destroy as ell as delight. Thank you Duke. I appreciate your comment. Aloha, Connie

A lovely write, Connie! The wind can be very inspiring. I get on well with the wind, except when it's too cold and when it's raining! I also often turn to it for inspiration. ~ Regards // paul

I love the wind Paul, but in this poem I am using it as a metaphor for a person who has no feelings. Thanks for your commet. It is always so nice to hear from you. Hugs, Connie
