THE SOUTH WIND
Jane Gertrude "Nettie" Palmer 1914
"…You will scale the height
And break across it shedding left and right
Cool rain, maternal shadow, fragrant air,
Till all the gully breathes and wakes and sings…
Come wrapt in radiance, peace and blinding storm,
And raise your songs where league-long breakers are,
With leaping powerful shadows near and far
Till all your soul finds utterance in your form."
