WIND IDYL, by                    
First Line: I lay, when wind was blowing
Last Line: Breathe, each to each.
Subject(s): Wind


I lay, when wind was blowing,
Under great boughs,
And heard dim rivers flowing
And seas carouse;
And, in that cool green weather,
The kiss of flames,
And queens rustling together
At ancient games;
And, while even the wind listened,
Such gossamer speech
As folk sheer and unchristened
Breathe, each to each.
