There is a solemn wind to-night <br />That sings of solemn rain; <br />The trees that have been quiet so long <br />Flutter and start again. <br /> <br />The slender trees, the heavy trees, <br />The fruit trees laden and proud, <br />Lift up their branches to the wind <br />That cries to them so loud. <br /> <br />The little bushes and the plants <br />Bow to the solemn sound, <br />And every tiniest blade of grass <br />Shakes on the quiet ground.<br /><br />Katherine Mansfield<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/there-is-a-solemn-wind-tonight/
