Riddle
Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.Riddle
Explosive as the daylight and with the dust I tease,
I whisper through the willows, wreak havoc with the leaves.
You feel me on your face, and hear me in the night,
And with my lonely mournful cries I give you such a fright .
I dance across the landscape, carefree and full of gust,
You can chase me all around, try and catch me if you must .
And in the cold of winter I give you such a chill,
But with the spring I race young foals swiftly up the hills.
The clues now spoken you have my friend, have you guessed me yet ?

Very easy - but very nicely written!
Easy teasy. Pretty and pleasy. Very enjoyable to read.
If I sneak up on someone, or just arrive unnoticed and startle them, I tend to whisper "I am the wind." I liked the answer being phrased that way.

I liked it, but 'gust' gave it away for me
You seem to have been going more for artistry than a difficult brain teaser.
Fun and easy teaser; I got it right away.
A lovely poem, very nicely written. It was easy to get from the beginning, but worth reading all the way through.
Beautiful poetry, but where was the brain-teaser?
