Wind

I spring alone with forgotten memories and shattered letters, I waltz through every landscape, I leap unendingly, sprinkling imprints of my fondness as rippled dunes and filtered secrets. I am passion and chaos, beauty and power, I jog in hair ice and frost flowers, stroking my lover jealous. I pour out shields of ideas and inspirations, gently on your soul when I fondle through her arms. And when we clash, I become a dust devil, I swirl like Turnado in heights splashing debris into your eyes leading to tumultuous storms.

Dear tonye, you have a very unique way with words, and expressing, so well articulated with such descriptive lines, I especially love “I become a dust devil, I swirl like Turnado in heights splashing debris into your eyes leading to tumultuous storms.” Wow impeccable! Another new fave! Best of luck for the contest

Hey Tonye, What a powerful and evocative poem! I love how you personify the wind, capturing its contrasting nature. The imagery is stunning – "sprinkling imprints...as rippled dunes," "jogging in hair ice," and the wind as a jealous "lover." The ending with the potential "tumultuous storms" adds a layer of complexity. It feels like the wind represents a powerful force in nature, but also the unpredictable emotions of the human heart. - Blessings, Daniel

The gradual growth of wind from a gentle breeze to a storm and tornado is powerfully delineated. "I am passion and chaos, beauty and power," Wind is antithetical with destructive and constructive powers combined within. Powerful personification, once more in your unique style, dear Tonye.

You've said it all dear, thank you Valsa. It's a mix of both.
