Here's good wind, here's sweet wind, Here's good wind and my woman calls me! Straight she stands there by the pine-tree, Faithful waits she by the cedar, She will smile and reach her hands When she sees my thousand salmon! Here's good wind and my woman calls me. Here's clear water, here's swift water, Here's bright water and my woman waits me! She will call me from the sea's mouth Sweet her pine-bed when the morning Lights my canoe and the river ends! Here's good wind, here's swift water, Strong as love when my woman calls me! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE OLD INDIAN by ARTHUR STANLEY BOURINOT SCHOLARLY PROCEDURE by JOSEPHINE MILES ONE LAST DRAW OF THE PIPE by PAUL MULDOON THE INDIANS ON ALCATRAZ by PAUL MULDOON PARAGRAPHS: 9 by HAYDEN CARRUTH THEY ACCUSE ME OF NOT TALKING by HAYDEN CARRUTH AMERICAN INDIAN ART: FORM AND TRADITION by DIANE DI PRIMA TIS A LITTLE JOURNEY by ANONYMOUS |
