Entry: Autumn

I can't really tell you
Why I like it when it rains
When the wind blows through my hair
But I do

It's just like when
I eat my favorite chocolate
Or when
I have a long conversation with my girlfriend

I just like it when the weather is bad
It makes me feel good

Perhaps that's why...

Voyage

Entry:
A kite's memento

Can you hear the sound of wind chimes
tinkle about the birth of new life?
The upcoming breeze gently stroked them,
taking the whisper to wide open skies.

Can you tell, the beautiful moon
shines over your soaring dreams?
She travels on the beams of its sound,
carried away to your make-believe worlds.

So trust in these gently tunes,
belief in my words, dear child.
The wind chimes you got by your side
will forever be your lullabies.

Entry: Read the Wind

Moving in rhythm
Winding in place
Delicate motions
finer than lace

Wind erases, and replaces
Tearing the sky apart
Understanding, reprimanding
it works into your heart

To find the time to understand
The way it whistles across the land

would be such an undertaking that
a dragon would themselves old and grey
and frail in mind and soul

before e'er they found the how and why
of what makes up a tempest's whole

You can delete the poem that is not yours from your first entry post to avoid confusing others. If you wish to share a poem you love by someone else, please indicate you are sharing, not entering, and so no need to use the entry format as it is NOT an entry. See Rule 11 "We welcome poems you want to share but don't want judged. Please let us know in your post that you are NOT entering, just sharing." Nowhere did I say to use a poem you found as an entry, I said you could enter a found poem, which is another form of poetry like sonnet, haiku, limerick, etc. Definition of "Found Poem" Found poetry is a type of poetry created by taking words, phrases, and sometimes whole passages from other sources and reframing them as poetry (a literary equivalent of a collage) by making changes in spacing and lines, or by adding or deleting text, thus imparting new meaning.
