LONDON WIND, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: The wind blows, the wind blows
Last Line: And the clouds are atoss in the sky!
Subject(s): London; Wind


THE wind blows, the wind blows
Over the ocean far—
But oh, it has forgot the waves
And the isles where the penguins are!

The wind blows, the wind blows
Over the forest wide—
But oh it has forgot the shade
And the dells where the hunted hide!

The wind blows, the wind blows
Over the houses high—
The paper whirls in the dusty street,
And the clouds are atoss in the sky!
