dVerse Poets Poetics

The style and form of your poem are up to you. I would just like you to be in your chosen element: run barefoot on the earth; fly through air; burn with fire; or swim in water.

Refreshing summer breeze

Tearing autumn leaves from trees

Bending harvest grains in a dance

Going outside you take a chance

Gifting you a new hairstyle

Taking your breath running a mile

The wind is a tyrant or a blessing

When your plans it’s addressing

It’s always good to be aware

Winds start or stop anywhere

At once a hot day’s reprieve

Or icy cold on winter eves

Gentle or strong, soft or harsh

This airy element is in charge.
