OUT OF THE SOUTH BLEW A WIND
- Fanny Carter Woods
Out of the South blew a soft sweet wind;
And on its breath was a song
Of fields and flowers and leafy bowers,
And bees that hum all day long.
Out of the South blew a soft low wind;
On its wings was a joy of a dream,
And it hovered so near I was sure I could hear
The call of woodland and stream.
Out of the South blew a soft sweet wind;
And on its breath was a song.
