Poet Analysis

First Line: THE WIND HAS SUCH A RAINY SOUND
Last Line: IN THE WINDY SEA?
Subject(s): SHIPS & SHIPPING; WIND;

The wind has such a rainy sound
Moaning through the town,
The sea has such a windy sound, --
Will the ships go down?

The apples in the orchard
Tumble from their tree. --
Oh will the ships go down, go down,
In the windy sea?
