Why Did The Wind Die ~ By Bob Auld

Post by Hughie »

Why Did The Wind Die

Why did the wind die
Once in a fired day
Was it to tease the trees
At their summer play.

Why did the wind die
Once in. a silent night
Was it to dress the trees
Give them robes of white.

Why did the wind die
Once in a weary year
Was it to silence the trees
With silent windless fear.

Why did the wind die
Once in a lonesome life
Was it to take the trees
Away from toil and strife.

Summer's gone why did it go
Autumn left leafless bowers
Winter's here covered in snow
Spring's promise is a land of flowers.

Hi Hugh, thank you for printing another lovely poem,
thank the poet for me, and wish him all the best,
and hope the weather is not to bad for him.
Best wishes. Ellen. :)
