The Wind in the Willows

Where do you go to think about things..?

The wind in the willows rustling leaves

The wind in my daydreams seeking release

I stand in the doorway of bad decisions and ask

Why do I find myself again on this path?

Wind in the willows rustling leaves

Could you not take me home again please?

I believe the structure of this can be better...
the way it reads to the reader...
the effectiveness is there --- but lacking ---
with that...I enjoyed the read...
the repeating line with the wind...
and the questions ....
leaves one to come up with their own answer...
---
as an example of what I was saying:

The wind in the willows rustling leaves

The wind in my daydreams seeking release

I stand in the doorway of bad decisions and ask

Why do I find myself again on this path?

Wind in the willows rustling leaves

Could you not take me home again please?

Wind in the willows
rustling leaves

Wind in my daydreams
seeking release

I stand in
doorway of bad decisions
and ask

Why do I find myself
again on this path?

Wind in the willows
rustling leaves

Could you not take me
home again please?

of course --- this is opinionated...
just a suggestion...
you're the final verdict of your work...
good to read your verse...

I liked the softness in this poem, "The wind in the willows rustling leaves The wind in my daydreams seeking release" and the way you used the metaphor of, "I stand in the doorway of bad decisions ". You made it sound soft, but yet very real.

it slows the poem down because it is meant to be read softly and thoughtfully like a wind rustling leaves..s
