This is a poem I wrote one windy, cold sleepless night in the fall |
| Autumn Wind by Jeanne J. Johnson The wild wind roared through the darkness of night It blew and it whistled; it howled and moaned The leaves on the trees and brush did scatter ‘bout Autumn is coming cold whisper had sung The Winds that blew last night made me shudder. The wild wind roared through the darkness of night. My blankets were up my feet were covered My ears they were deafened by the blast of cold wind Autumn is coming I heard the winds say You better be prepared its ‘bout to begin Wind had laughed at me once again its true Fair warning is blowing in hard and fast The leaves had lost their home the wind had laughed The wild wind roared through the darkness of night. It spoke to me in gusts of air blowing Knocking at my window it never stopped Sleepless night; revenge of the wild night’s winds The wild wind roared through the darkness of night. |
