What do you think of my poem?

The wind's blowing


so hard with its intention


to knock me down,


causing me to sway


so flower like, planting


my feet like a flower's


roots in the Earth.





I sway and sway


so wildly I could


float up and


travel in the wind


like a lonesome seed.





But no matter


how frigid air violently


nibbles at my skin,


no matter how frail


my bones become


from use and abuse,


I will not tumble and fall!





You, wind, will


never make me fall like


snow, melting from


the caress of the warm


breeze, then gone


and forgotten


within the moist


soil.

I can follow the imagery and it follows through. You personify the wind and I see metaphors for your life. you stand resolute before opposition. finally you address the wind and tame it to your purpose.
