Last Line: I'll always be young.
Subject(s): Wind; Youth


It is sad today,
And the winds blow wild,
As they blew ago
When I was a child.

I played with the winds
And the winds were gay.
They made wild laughter
To liven the day.

They will blow wild gusts
And ever be so --
They're Freedom itself;
I am free, I know.

The winds will sing songs --
The best is unsung;
Who loves the wild wind
Will fore'er be young.

I love the wild wind
And its lashing tongue --
I am young today,
I'll always be young.
