Hello.

First comment would be how you haven't kept the letter's shapes clean. Especially the "cl" combination in "cloud" (I thought it was a lowercase d for about a minute) and the "ud" at the end (where the U looks like an O because it's connected to the D. The D also looks like a bit of a random shape, because capitals usually don't connect that way.).

Also, in "wind", the N looks like a W because there's the smallest line going up from the base of the start of the N, which is at the perfect angle to make the N look like a W. The D also falls prey to the same fate, an N forming at the base because of an extra line. It also looks remarkably close to a leaf, making me wonder if it's a letter at all. It's difficult to tell what the words are thanks to this.

I also find you've missed the mark with the "wind" image. The lines are very sharp, making me think of gothic fonts (such as these and the fonts on book covers where the story contains vampires). It also doesn't go with my picture of wind being very free flowing— the sharp lines make it more appropriate for talking about daggers or something else with a cutting edge.

Overall, clean up your line shapes and rethink what you're going for with the "wind" image. It doesn't look like wind to me at first glance.

Hope this helps. PM me if you have any questions or comments.
