Nature

XIII

by William Ernest Henley 1849–1903

From Poems

Nature

BRING her again, O western wind,
Over the western sea:
Gentle and good and fair and kind,
Bring her again to me!

Not that her fancy holds me dear,
Not that a hope may be:
Only that I may know her near,
Wind of the western sea.

1875
