Gone With The Wind Poem by Valerie Dohren

Gone With The Wind

Rating: 4.8


Wanting to touch the sky
I reached out,
but it was beyond my grasp.

Intangible -
like a whisper carried on the breeze.

Hopefulness -
drifting through the shadows
of my mind….

lost
in the labyrinth
of the present,

now gone …
with the wind.

An eye-catching title, very poetically and intelligently used...with a change of your own style with a touch of newness to it...liked it!

Sky is empty space with particles floating. If hope is all the pace from earth to sky, some part is reachable, I hope. Thank you for a beautiful poem.

Sometime our hope and dreams are gone with the wind but at least we have hope.

The wind in it's infinite fashion can pick up a seed and take it to a place far away from where it had originally fallen. So is it with our thoughts it can take us to lofty heights then set us in a a place of complete serenity. Very inspiring.

Sometimes we fall short of goals and desires. But one can still try. Brief, to the point and finely written.
