Catch the Wind

E - Everyone

In Poems

Some say that if you

Catch the Wind,

You're a special blessing.

So run after it.

*

Why do people throw away

Their value and their hope?

If you can Catch the Wind today,

You'll save it all, I know.

*

You'll be given lots of love

And great thanks, trust me.

We'll all call you Strong Dove,

Because you fly with the Wind.

*

So if you hear this note,

This little poem of mine,

Why don't you go and

Catch the Wind?

You know it's worth a try.

*

*Yes, I know the last stanza and first stanza don't rhyme and that the last stanza is five lines. Please don't critique that, it was done intentionally.*

This was a cute poem. I didn't exactly see the point of the poem, but it was cute all the same. I don't understand the whole thing you are talking about at the bottom, is it supposed to be like a haiku or something?

anywho, I understand it was one of those non-rhyming poems but hey it's about cloud, and clouds are cute and fluffy, and I like that. I'm rambling aren't I? I should probably stop talking, well would it be considered typing or talking? Eh, I'm just gonna stop talking / typing while I'm ahead.

Good luck with poems and keep up the good work!!

Hi!

Wow- I've never thought about this, like, at all. I love it, though! I love the uniqueness about it, too.

That would be truly amazing if I could catch the wind. It kinda reminds me of catching your shadow or something, y'know? Like, it would be amazing if you could do so.

I feel very ashamed 'cause I didn't even realize the two middle stanzas ryhmed.. -.-

The one thing I saw was this:

Some say that if you
Catch the Wind,


I thought the transition between these two lines was rather choppy... Personally, I don't like when poems are like this, but I do think other people may... Just thought I'd point it out, even if you knew already.


The last thing I want to say is how... Hmm.. Light this seems, I guess. I mean, like, it's happy, yeah, but it's light . It just seems there, but it's something. I'm not sure if that makes any sense or not, but hopefully it does. :P

I would love to Catch the Wind. :)
I have never really seen life like this, but everyone has a different opinion on life and I'm glad to have been able to read your's. I like the fact that you compare someone who "catches the wind" as a strong dove. Not everyone in this world is strong but if everyone would try things would be a lot different. I like that fact that you encourage people to go after their hoes and desires in the last stanza after explaining yourself in the previous four stanzas. This is a really good poem. I enjoyed it a lot. It wasn't too much where I felt like falling asleep and it wasn't too short where it left me wanting more. It was just the right size to describe your feelings. <3

I like this poem. I'm glad you did that intentional change at the end there; it makes this poem unique, a "special blessing", if you will.

Thanks! :)
