A very calming, sensitive poem Brooke. I picture sitting on the wood steps coming down from the dune, thinking of love - either just lost or just found - very nice rhyming in this one. Jean

Comment from Sasha
This is clearly a 6 but alas, it is Saturday and I don't have any left. I love this quatern which is similar to the pantoum, which I also love. When you get a moment...lol ...could you explain the subtle difference between the two. I felt the soft breeze and the strength of the oak resisting it. Marvelous work with this, beautifully written with lovely and so delicate repeating lines. Thanks so much for sharing this with us. I enjoyed it immensely.

I live the rhythm of a quatern. This one is especially good. Your breeze blew right into my head and it was a delight to read. Great job!

That busy breeze brushed by me
But did not linger long
For it had other folks to see
So it kept breezing on
Well done, Buck

Oh, Brooke! I love this quatern. Your repeating line is so slightly altered in the second stanza. As graceful as your images. :) nancy

Evil Eddie has had a blast with the spacing on this one Brooke. I've always loved the quatern, with its plaintive repeated lines (love the pantoum form too for that same reason) ... the 'breeze' is light and fanciful, lending itself especially well to the slightly nostalgic mood of your piece. Smiles, as usual!

Observing the wonders of Nature like the simple breeze can be an interesting pastime and not all need be affected by it. Lovely imagery and use of rhyming to convey your message. Lovely picture and enjoyable as always. Faye

A six star writing. The subtlety of the repeated line is almost missed in its simple importance. That is a wonderful line with meaningful and deeper significance. I really love this poem.

Comment from Tatarka2
I especially loved the last two lines of this poem. I know how much work went into the rhyming and, as always, it's perfect. It's just not my favorite of your poems. Still, it's beautifully done and I can't find anything to criticize. I guess it just seems like the ones about Sawyer so obviously have your heart in them - I love those.

Thank you, my friend, for your thoughtful feedback. Hey, they can't all be your favorite or favorite would have no meaning. LOL

Comment from skye
I love this repeating line -- a breeze swept through and brushed my skin. It hooks each stanza together, making the wind and the trees work harmoniously, both on earth and in this excellent poem.
Well done.
