We toll through life linked to-

minltes sniggle together and the
pompous hours and the dreary

He's free-free 70 laugh or to

mourn and no man can say him
nay.
The Wind and the Sea, how
they love to dance together and

Some people believe that when
we die we come back TO earth
again as trees, or plants, or parts
of great rushing rivers-if / be-
lieved this 70 be true, / would
hope TO come back as the wind
free and wild and fearless.
How I'd love to rush over the
