Comment from Lastamen
The Master tells us that "the wind blows where it wills" and we know not. The moving and working of the Holy Spirit is given to those who obey the will of the Lord. This touching series of questions beacons the Spirit to lead, guide and direct and then reveal its Divine presence. Such a glorious thought which gives us all cause to pause. Well done.
Till the last amen

Dear Roy,
Bring on part 2. I really enjoyed 'Breezes.' I am glad you wrote author notes as it clarified some questions the poem had raised. It was an interesting read.
Good night friend,
:-) Carolyn

Whenever I come here to review, I want to see you on that front page! Many blessings. . .Sharon

Good use of the aabb rhyme scheme. Good end rhyming. Good rhythm and flow. Good alliteration with with/warm...limp/low...friend/foe. Good complimentary photo followed by a clear message.

Comment from honeytree
Beautifully written in every way the art work is superb.
God has given us many gifts within our lives a
one of them is the wind that can be gentle or strong.
We must remember that the breath of wind from God
is so special.

Comment from Joan E.
I enjoyed this half of your song and hope you have set it to music. Thank you for the notes for addition context and the ethereal artwork to reinforce the mood as well. Your personifying the "wind" adds to the intensity also. Cheers- Joan

Comment from loibeth
One of your lines just changed! That is much better: Surround ME with your warm embrace!
Regarding the second stanza: to me the last line interferes with the nice flow the first 3 lines provide somehow. ... Perhaps you can make the last line parallel with the other lines... mentioning a different topic instead (another "when" line if you know what I mean) and end with the question mark. Just wondering!
Another thing: you might want to make use of "?" for the question lines.
Other than that, I truly love your poem. You got great rhymes and a great topic, the wind of the HS. Great job!

Comment from Aussie
Fabulous illustration to compliment your poem. When my mother died, I saw her face when the clouds parted. I liked your song/poem very much and the wind does mean different things to different people; take the Wind walkers a tribe of American Indians who were used during WW11 to send messages across the mountains.

Comment from Dawny53
An excellent poem, good use of the metaphor of the wind for the Holy Spirit. Your writing is so well put together, I really like it. I enjoy your poems very much. I wondered if in stanza 1 you would want to say Oh breath of wind against my face surround me with your warm embrace.
