A South Wind—has a pathos
Of individual Voice—
...
There cam a Wind like a Bugle -
It quivered through the Grass
And a Green Chill upon the Heat
So ominous did pass
...
The wind tapped like a tired man,
And like a host, 'Come in,'
I boldly answered; entered then
My residence within
...
The wind begun to rock the grass
With threatening tunes and low,--
He flung a menace at the earth,
A menace at the sky.

The Wind didn't come from the Orchard—today—
Further than that—
...
How slow the Wind -
how slow the sea -
how late their Fathers be!
...
The Wind took up the Northern Things
And piled them in the south -
Then gave the East unto the West
And opening his mouth
...
The spry Arms of the Wind
If I could crawl between
I have an errand imminent
To an adjoining Zone -
...
A Wind that rose
Though not a Leaf
In any Forest stirred
But with itself did cold engage
...
The duties of the Wind are few,
To cast the ships, at Sea,
Establish March, the Floods escort,
And usher Liberty.
...
I saw the wind within her
I knew it blew for me —
But she must buy my shelter
I asked Humility
...
I bet with every Wind that blew
Till Nature in chagrin
Employed a Fact to visit me
And scuttle my Balloon -
...
How lonesome the Wind must feel Nights -
When people have put out the Lights
And everything that has an Inn
Closes the shutter and goes in -
...
