To a Child Dancing in the Wind, by W. B. Yeats

Poem? Yeats?

Aside from Jane Austen, and the odd Bronte sisters' work...I don't really do much literature. My memories of literature is ol' Mr James flipping through our literature text book in high school....and it was so "stupifying" that it sort of stuck in my brain ...the exact words for this poem called "The VIllage" ..which sort of start with " The Village, peace and quite.....bla bla bla"

But if I've realised and been exposed to beautiful poems from Yeats...I might be a sucker for poems :

To a Child Dancing in the Wind, by W. B. Yeats: "TO A CHILD DANCING IN THE WIND
by: W. B. Yeats (1865-1939)
ANCE there upon the shore;
What need have you to care
For wind or water's roar?
And tumble out your hair
That the salt drops have wet;
Being young you have not known
The fool's triumph, nor yet
Love lost as soon as won,
Nor the best labourer dead
And all the sheaves to bind.
What need have you to dread
The monstrous crying of wind?
'To a Child Dancing in the Wind' is reprinted from Responsibilities. W.B. Yeats. New York: Macmillan, 1916."
