O, wind! what saw you in the South, <br />In lilied meadows fair and far? <br />I saw a lover kiss his lass <br />New-won beneath the evening star. <br /> <br />O, wind! what saw you in the West <br />Of passing sweet that wooed your stay? <br />I saw a mother kneeling by <br />The cradle where her first-born lay. <br /> <br />O, wind! what saw you in the North <br />That you shall dream of evermore? <br />I saw a maiden keeping tryst <br />Upon a gray and haunted shore. <br /> <br />O, wind! what saw you in the East <br />That still of ancient dole you croon? <br />I saw a wan wreck on the waves <br />And a dead face beneath the moon.<br /><br />Lucy Maud Montgomery<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-wind-7/
