THE WIND (2) by SARA TEASDALE

Poet Analysis

First Line: A TALL TREE TALKING WITH THE WIND
Last Line: FREE AS THE WIND.
Subject(s): WIND;
A tall tree talking with the wind
Leans as he leaned to me --
But oh the wind waits where she will,
The wind is free.

I am a woman, I am weak,
And custom leads me as one blind,
Only my songs go where they will
Free as the wind.
