First lines
MANY roses in the wind / Are tapping at the window-sash. / A hawk is in the sky; his wings / Slowly begin to plash.
The roses with the west wind rapping / Are torn away, and a splash / Of red goes down the billowing air.
Still hangs the hawk, with the whole sky moving / Past him--only a wing-beat proving / The will that holds him there.
The daisies in the grass are bending, / The hawk has dropped, the wind is spending / All the roses, and unending / Rustle of leaves washes out the rending / Cry of a bird.
