The slender trees, the heavy trees,          #16
                                 The fruit trees laden and proud,
                            Lift up their branches to the wind
                                 That cries to them so loud.

                            The little bushes and the plants
                                 Bow to the solemn sound,
                            And every tiniest blade of grass
                                 Shakes on the quiet ground.
                                                    --Katherine Mansfield
