You can feel the wind blow but, can you grasp it in your hand? It simply isn't possible, every time I try I feel nothing in my hand. I look around me but, I see nothing though I suppose air isn't meant to be seen, rather meant to be felt. I feel it blow through my long curly brown hair on a cool day, I hear it howling on a frozen winter night, I see it moving the flowers in the spring and, I see it blow the leaves off their branches in the fall. I try so very often to catch it in my hand, I just wonder what it looks like my mind races, I really want to know but I can not catch the wind. So my question is can you grasp it in your hand?

You can feel the wind blow but, can you grasp it in your hand?
The comma needs to be after the but, not before it.
It simply isn't possible, every time I try I feel nothing in my hand.
you need either a period or semicolon instead of a comma here.
I feel it blow through my long curly brown hair on a cool day,
Perhaps try to use a different line than "I feel it blow" because you already had that at the beginning.
I just wonder what it looks like my mind races,
This line confuses me. If it is a thought it should be italicized, and you need a comma after the word like. If it was italic and messed up then i understand. That has happened to me as well.
Overall a nice picture or description of what the wind is, and how you can't really grasp it in your hand. I liked your line:
I feel it blow through my long curly brown hair on a cool day, I hear it howling on a frozen winter night, I see it moving the flowers in the spring and, I see it blow the leaves off their branches in the fall.
Really pretty pictures of all the seasons. Good job.
Keep it up!
Happy Review Day!!!!
Hey

Guess who is reviewing this submission for ya? ME! XD
Okay let's start shall we?
Starting with the title, it was really good. Now I have been seeing many titles and this one is one the amazing ones! I mean I was totally like "I have to read this after reading the title and after reading the poem I wanted to review
Plot was nice too. I enjoyed reading it and got your basic idea.
Your description was flawless!
Now as others have already done a great job in showing you your flaws and your amazing points in the poem I am going to go straight to this:
And my favorite stanza is!
"I feel nothing in my hand.
I look around me but,
I see nothing
though I suppose air isn't meant to be seen,
rather meant to be felt.
I feel it blow through my long curly brown hair on a cool day,
I hear it howling on a frozen winter night,
I see it moving the flowers in the spring and,
I see it blow the leaves off their branches in the fall."
That's all I have to say! keep on the good work and I bet you will be better than an amazing writer that you already are < 3

Hello!
This is an excellent poem, I truly love it! However, I can't feel it inside, because the allignment is so boring. I can't feel it stir something in my heart when such a good poem is in paragraph form. Try editing it so it looks like this:
I noticed that on the majority of the sentences, you started them with the word "I". While there is nothing wrong with this, it does get a bit tiring and repetitive, unless that's what you were trying to do.
I love it when people ask questions in poetry! I have caught the wind in my hand. I caught it, but I let it free, because the wind should not be chained.
Keep writing and Happy review Day!

Yo, Soldier. I'm Lumi, and I believe that slaughter is the best medicine.
So you have this singular idea that, on its own, is cliche and has been explored a thousand different ways, probed, prodded, castrated, and left to die only to be trampled again in its sleep. For that, I beg of you to bring something fresh to the idea of the intangible wind. Despite my begging, though, you've given me nothing but further cliches. You don't deliver appropriate flow, imagery, nor ideas, and that leaves this piece needing complete rewriting--not because someone tells you so, but because you're better than this.
Let's dissect.
1. Hand count.
A word should never appear more than twice in poetry unless it is a well-constructed motif. Your hand, however, is not, and should be removed. Learn new words, new phrases, and construct new ideas and beautiful sentences with these new words.
2. Obnoxious Detail
Quiz: how much of this could you cut out without losing an important detail? Try it and you'll be surprised. I won't do it for you.
3. Constructing appropriate images.
3a. How does the wind act in rain, in snow, in sunlight and cityscapes?
3b. How does the wind change the world, the way you see the world, the very nature of your surroundings?
3c. How does the wind chip away at your being, make you cold in the winter, cool you in the summer?
3d. Why, in general, should I care about the wind?
Please don't take this all offensively. I'm brusque because I know you have the power to do better. If you revise, be sure to let me see it. Best of luck,
Lumi
Hey, here to review.
So this poem is really nice. I love the way describe all the things the wind can be seen doing. Like the part about blowing the leaves.
I feel it blow through my long curly brown hair on a cool day, I hear it howling on a frozen winter night, I see it moving the flowers in the spring and, I see it blow the leaves off their branches in the fall.
I love that part.
Now, you need to divide this poem into individual lines. I suspect you know what I mean, but her's an example in case you don't.
I feel it blow through my long curly brown hair on a cool day,
I hear it howling on a frozen winter night,
I see it moving the flowers in the spring and,
I see it blow the leaves off their branches in the fall.
Doing that really clears things up for the reader, allowing the reader to understand everything easier and making the flow much smoother. I really like the poem.
Keep it up!
Hi spacesoldier,here is Dark to give review on your poem.
I really like the way you point up the ideas here,it just so nice and meaningful to read here.I love how you use the literature styles here,and I think you have such a wide imagination and vocabulary here!
#You can feel the wind blow but, can you grasp it in your hand? It simply isn't possible, every time I try I feel nothing in my hand.-->This lines succeeds in influencing the reader to continue reading on the next lines.Good job here!
But there is a word that not suit with the meaning here:
#...brown hair on a cool* day-->Do you mean a cool day or cold day here?Because cool definition is not suit with the theme 'wind blow'.
Anyway,you doing a great job here,so keep it up!
Kudos,cheers
~Dark.
Wow! That's nice. Deep I must say.
Good job!
Regards.
