 Who Has Seen the Wind?

Christina Rossetti


Who has seen the wind?

Neither I nor you:

But when the leaves hang trembling,

The wind is passing through.


Who has seen the wind?

Neither you nor I:

But when the trees bow down their head,

The wind is passing by.

Malhar

Who has seen the wind?

Neither the Sailor nor you:

But when the boat sails

The wind is pushing through.


Who has seen the wind?

Neither I or the reader:

But when the book leafs are turned quickly with like prrrrrrrr

The wind is reading through.


Who has seen the wind?

Neither the Cuckoo-bird nor you:

But when the rain drops comes through the window,

The wind is peeking through.


Who has seen the wind?

neither I nor the birthday boy:

But when the candle goes off,

The wind is blown through.


Who has seen the wind?

neither i nor you yes 

but thats how the god wanted it to be

When the shy one is born.
