son boys wind
A boy's will is the wind's will.
heart wind roots
More hearts are breaking in this world of ours Than one would say. In distant villages And solitudes remote, where winds have wafted The barbed seeds of love, or birds of passage Scattered them in their flight, do they take root, And grow in silence, and in silence perish.
ice wind east
Southward with fleet of ice Sailed the corsair Death; Wild and fast blew the blast, And the east-wind was his breath.
heart sunshine wind
When thou are not pleased, beloved, Then my heart is sad and darkened, As the shining river darkens When the clouds drop shadows on it! When thou smilest, my beloved, Then my troubled heart is brightened, As in sunshine gleam the ripples That the cold wind makes in rivers.
love boys wind
A boy's will is the wind's will, and the thought's of youth are long, long thoughhts
wind house vision
Burn, O evening hearth, and waken Pleasant visions, as of old! Though the house by winds be shaken, Safe I keep this room of gold!
sleep dust wind
The trees are white with dust, that o'er their sleep Wave their broad curtains in the south-wind's breath, While underneath such leafy tents they keep The long, mysterious Exodus of Death.
summer winter wind
Where, twisted round the barren oak, The summer vine in beauty clung, And summer winds the stillness broke, The crystal icicle is hung.
wind play ships
And the wind plays on those great sonorous harps, the shrouds and masts of ships.
sweet kissing wind
The gentle wind, a sweet and passionate wooer, Kisses the blushing leaf.
stars wind clouds
Through woods and mountain passes The winds, like anthems, roll.
wind clouds littles
See yonder little cloud, that, borne aloft So tenderly by the wind, floats fast away Over the snowy peaks!
rain dark wind
The day is dark and cold and dreary; it rains, and the wind is never weary.
twilight blow wind
The twilight is sad and cloudy, The wind blows wild and free, And like the wings of sea-birds Flash the white caps of the sea.
