This reminds me of the famous comment by an American humourist, whose name, I am ashamed to say, slips my mind: that it was obvious what caused the wind -- it's all those trees waving their branches about! No I don't think you have enough trees in Oklahoma, so I suppose you have to make do with turbines for wind!

Eyes can glimpse
but the mind can't fathom
The total awesomeness of our God

Just when we think we've got Him figured out, He gives us another glimpse...

Well done with this one, Buck

Your presentation is great. The colors remind me of wind and dirt blowing like I know it does in OK.

The topic is good--one that is not usually written about in a poem. Turbines do provide energy, but God makes the wind.

Good job. No changes. Thanks for sharing.

A salute to man's ingenuity and God who is ultimately responsible.
turbines / Stirring the night air --great verb choice.

G'day Carolyn. From time to time one of these little forms jumps off the screen at me and just say a whole big story in a few lines which would take me a heck of a lot more lines to write. That picture is great as well mate, good work, I love this piece. Cheers Fez

I like the artwork you choose to go with your poem.
It is a perfect match. As I looked at the art something magical went in my mind, yet I knew not what it meant.
Until I read the authors note. Than it made sense.
Thank you for sharing.

Wow! Ten thousand turbines must require a lot of maintenance. At least that creates jobs. I thought your poem was a lovely way of making a mechanical thing have a pleasing outcome in the face of nature.

    Thanks Nicole,
    Your part of the planet has those too, I assume. Oklahoma has so many. We call them turbine ranches.'
    I appreciate your fine remarks.

Hi Carolyn,

This is another wonderfully written free verse poem with a great picture to go with it. I also like the scripture you put with it too. You are such a wonderful poet and I just love to read your work.

Carolyn;
+ this piece of poetry is mostly your nearly written as a tanka or a Japanese form and style of the same type. I commend you on it very well written piece of poetry,
+ good use of enjambment which is the running on of a thought and concepts in one stanza and line to the next without a syntactical break.
+ Also, good use of juxtaposition technique of association and similarity were used two distinct images within one poem. The two images in this poem are in the lines: "Stirring the night air" and "Wonders of the wind".
+ The pictures very conducive, relative and complements the poem. A great silhouette of a picture.
+ Near and notable alliteration's: /"ten thousand turbines"/"Wonders of the wind"/
+ thank you for sharing and posting this wonderful piece of poetry with imagery is very definitively descriptive and vividly expressive. May the good Lord be with you always also.
Alex
