Mark Van Doren Wind Poems
- 1. Morning Worship
I wake and hearing it raining.
Were I dead, what would I give
Lazily to lie here,
Like this, and live?
... - 2. The Deepest Dream
The deepest dream is of mad governors,
Down, down we feel it, till the very crust
Of the world cracks, and where there was no dust,
Atoms of ruin rise. Confusion stirs,
... - 3. Spring Thunder
Listen, The wind is still,
And far away in the night --
See! The uplands fill
With a running light.
