Denied

 The winds came out of the west one day, 
And hurried the clouds before them; 
And drove the shadows and mists away, 
And over the mountains bore them.

And I wept, 'Oh, wind, blow into my mind, 
Blow into my soul and heart, 
And scatter the clouds that hang lile shrouds, 
And make the shadows depart.
'

The rain came out of th eleaden skies
And beat on the earth's cold bosom.

It said to the sleeping grass, 'Arise, '
And the young buds sprang in blossom.

And I wept in pain, 'Oh, blessed rain, 
Beat into my heart to-day; 
Thaw out the snows that are chilling it so, 
Till it blossoms in hope, I pray.
'

The sunshine fell on the bare-armed trees, 
In a wonderful sheen of glory; 
And the young leaves rustled and sang to the breeze, 
And whispered a love-fraught story.

And 'Sun, oh, shine on this heart of mine, 
And woo it to life, ' I cried; 
But the wind, and sun, and rain, each one
The coveted boon denied
