Here's good wind, here's sweet wind, Here's good wind and my woman calls me! Straight she stands there by the pine-tree, Faithful waits she by the cedar, She will smile and reach her hands When she sees my thousand salmon! Here's good wind and my woman calls me. Here's clear water, here's swift water, Here's bright water and my woman waits me! She will call me from the sea's mouth— Sweet her pine-bed when the morning Lights my canoe and the river ends! Here's good wind, here's swift water, Strong as love when my woman calls me! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...OFFERING by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON REVIEW by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: AMI GREEN by EDGAR LEE MASTERS THE CLOISTER by ISAAC ROSENBERG IN A RAILROAD STATION by SARA TEASDALE |
