Does this title fit "Gods of Winds"?
a sonnet from a yap from yesteryear
To hear song birds crying as Auster weeps
and see leaves dead, bend while carried about
Dove wings flutter, cool Autumn sleeps
and skies turn gray when Boreas comes out
He'll touch all things when he finally shows
To bring a coldness, warm suns never own
Showing no mercy as his power grows
To cover landscapes, to crackle and moan
Those that are caught by Boreas chilly veil
Will face its sheer strength, so frightful and cold
To watch far sun move with its Winter sail
and seek Auster's breath as seasons unfold
I'll feel my time pass until Auster comes
and count each day till' Boreas succumbs
Roman Gods of wind
Boreas- North Wind
Auster- South Wind

I really like this poem. You did a great job on creativity with Boreas and Auster and connecting with them to Autumn and Winter. The title suits perfectly with: Waiting on Gods of the Winds. In the last stance, you are indicating that whoever is watching the gods stirr and moveis waiting for one, Auster, to come back, and for Boreals to die. Whatever you choose, I believe you did amazing. Maybe get it published. Those who love mythical greek would want to read this.

I like the poem, it's nice! Perhaps 'Gods of Wind' might work more so for a title, as 'Winds' feels a bit grammatically incorrect, or even 'Gods of the two winds'
Best of luck :)
