"THE WIND"

I saw you toss the kites on highAnd blow the birds about the sky;And all around I heard you pass,Like ladies’ skirts across the grass

O wind, a-blowing all day long, O wind, that sings so loud a song!

I saw the different things you did,But always you yourself you hid.I felt you push, I heard you call,I could not see yourself at all— 

O wind, a-blowing all day long, O wind, that sings so loud a song!

O you that are so strong and cold,O blower, are you young or old?Are you a beast of field and tree,Or just a stronger child than me? 

O wind, a-blowing all day long, O wind, that sings so loud a song!
