An ill wind brings no fortune <br />when it blows your way <br />and if you see it coming <br />close up your shudders and boards <br />and hope it will pass by <br />leaving you to your own accord. <br />Be always ever vigilant <br />for an ill wind <br />that might just pass your way. <br />It leaves only misfortunes and misery <br />we can all do without today. <br />If you see one on the horizon, <br />shelter until it has gone away. <br />As an ill wind brings no fortune <br />whenever it blows your way.<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-ill-wind/
