Re: The Cross Wind - Real Fairies 1923
What a great poem! I'd never read it before - thanks for posting it Pete.
I love some of the powerful images Enid creates - especially the line 'you try to blow my legs right off the ground' - what a great description!

'Oh voice of Spring of Youth
hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'
