PRAYERS [FOR WIND]., by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Let the winds come
Last Line: The deep unquenchable answer of the wind.
Subject(s): Wind


LET the winds come,
And bury our feet in the sands of seven deserts;
Let strong breezes rise,
Washing our ears with the far-off sounds of the foam.
Let there be between our faces
Green turf and a branch or two of back-tossed trees;
Set firmly over questioning hearts
The deep unquenchable answer of the wind.
