Or at least, I can't think of any. The Holy Spirit is a person, the Holy Spirit is God, so I don't see why people don't directly pray to him. There are prayers to the Father (like the Pater Noster) and there are prayers to the Son (like the Domine Iesu) but there aren't really a lot of prayers directly to the Holy Spirit. What's up with that?
Why aren't there any direct prayers to the Holy Spirit?

Before Reading the Holy Scriptures
Prayer to the Holy Spirit
Come, Holy Spirit, and fill the hearts of Thy faithful, and enkindle in them the fire of Thy love.
V. Send forth Thy Spirit, and they shall be created,
R. and Thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
Let us pray.
O God, Who didst instruct the hearts of the faithful by the light of the Holy Spirit, grant us by the same Spirit to have a right judgment in all things and ever to rejoice in His consolation. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Indulgence of five years, Plenary indulgence, under the usual conditions, if the prayer has been recited daily for a month. (Enchiridion Indulgentiarum, 289)

There's also the prayer of St. Ephraim the Syrian to the Holy Spirit (myriobiblos.gr
Still there are a lot less than to the Father or to the Son. I don't know why; perhaps we simply have an easier time seeing the other two Persons of the Trinity as actually persons that we could address petitions or praises to.
