Spirit Wind

Spirit wind Feeling on my face Butting in, smearing My jowls relentless Your muffled voice A conglomerate I prefer the still Silent air and the Sharp smack of heels On the pavement

Hi David! If you'd thought my write was the "eye of the storm", I think this one is the passing storm. "smack of heels on the pavement", would feel like thunderous growls in the "Silent air". So wishing you the best! Mikki

Ah the struggle between wild and crazy and still and quiet.. in luv it exists forever my friend.. constantly working at keeping it balanced.. my guru? me myself and I .. but many things around me keep me intune with a Higher Source for guidance... sometimes I don't listen.. then I get in trouble..haha... so glad u enjoyed my "Fountainhead" for the new contest.. David u need to enter some...your poetry is so excellent ..like this one.. change to Free Verse.. and 12 lines ... good luck my friend.

this seems very deep to me, David. I really like it the contrast you make between the stanzas.
