THE WINDS OF GOD, by MARGUERITE AVIS WHITCOMB First Line: Blow, winds of god / the bugle's call Last Line: Shall whisper god's unchanging plan. Subject(s): Wind | ||||||||
Blow, winds of God The bugle's call Up to the farthest star Its summons sends; And for our sins and sorrows Makes amends. Blow, winds of God, And purge our earth-born fear -- A challenge Over ocean deeps, The highest mountains Snow-capped peaks. Blow, winds of God. The prairie, undulating plain Shall carry thought Beyond the reach of man; The desert, too, in silence wide Shall whisper God's unchanging plan. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE THREE CHILDREN by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN THE WIND by LOUISE MOREY BOWMAN LEAF LITTER ON ROCK FACE by HEATHER MCHUGH RESIDENTIAL AREA by JOSEPHINE MILES THE DAY THE WINDS by JOSEPHINE MILES VARIATIONS: 12 by CONRAD AIKEN OH IT'S PRETTY WINDY OUTSIDE by LARRY EIGNER GOD OF THE OPEN by MARGUERITE AVIS WHITCOMB |
