Poetry Friday - I Am The Wind

It's Poetry Friday once again, and while I toil on for my NaNoWriMo word count (more than half-way there!) I present another poem by my daughter. This one was done as a school assignment and ultimately found it's way into our local newspaper.

I Am The Wind

by KRM (grade 8)

I am flowing, yet wild.

I wonder what its like to be still.

I hear the whispering.

I see the flowers waving.

I want them to join in my dance.

I am flowing, yet wild.

I pretend I make the world spin.

I feel the thrill of the dance.

I touch the clouds' hands.

I worry I will be too harsh.

I cry when someone won't dance.

I am flowing, yet wild.

I understand I won't live forever.

I say, I live in the moment.

I dream the dance will live on.

I try to dance with the clouds

I hope to dance all over the world.

I am flowing, yet wild.
