Riding the Wind
look back, realise....where your struggle with destiny has brought you
Once a time not too long ago,
I tried to catch the wind which blows
With wings and gliders atop a cliff,
I stood and watched and paused to breathe
The sooner I drop to ride the clouds,
I realized then with a gasp out loud
For I sought to catch the wind,
But failed to grasp the fallen leaves’ hint
For I sought to ride the wind,
But now I dance to its forceful hymn
Riding the wind
Once a time not too long ago,
I tried to catch the wind which blows
With wings and gliders atop a cliff,
I stood and watched and paused to breathe
The sooner I drop to ride the clouds,
I realized then with a gasp out loud
For I sought to catch the wind,
But failed to grasp the fallen leaves’ hint
For I sought to ride the wind,
But now I dance to its forceful hymn

ah, finally, a short poem! short but a great read, i like tis two lines: "failed to grasp the fallen leaves’ hint" n "But now I dance to its forceful hymn".
hmm ya explanation of the poem n the phrase "the fallen leaves' hint" seem to mean ya poem is emphasising on a person ending up where he is due to his failure to detect certain facts n details of his circumstances is it?
you got it man
someone trys to control his destiny but ends up being controlled by circumstances
any particular person n incident in mind when u wrote it?
