The speaker wishes he could be like a leaf or cloud carried by the wind. He asks the wind to turn him into its instrument or replace his spirit entirely with its fierce one, to drive his dead thoughts worldwide and make his words spark among mankind. In asking if winter must bring spring, the speaker hopes the decay he feels means rebirth will follow.

All that time
by May Swenson
I saw two trees embracing.
One leaned on the other as if to throw her down.
But she was the upright one.
Since their twin youth, maybe she had been pulling him toward her
all that time, and finally almost uprooted him.
He was the thin, dry, insecure one, the most wind-warped, you could see.
And where their tops tangled it looked like he was crying on her shoulder.
On the other hand, maybe he had been trying to weaken her, break her, or at least make her bend
over backwards for him just a little bit.
And all that time she was standing up to him the best she could.
She was the most stubborn, the straightest one, that's a fact.
But he had been willing to change himself—even if it was for the worse—all that time.
At the top, they looked like one tree, where they were embracing.
It was plain they'd be always together.
Too late now to part.
When the wind blew, you could hear them rubbing on each other.
Introduction to Poetry- Billy Collins
I ask them to take a poem and hold it up to the light like a color slide or press an ear against its hive.
I say drop a mouse into a poem and watch him probe his way out, or walk inside the poem's room
and feel the walls for a light switch.
I want them to waterski across the surface of a poem waving at the author's name on the shore.
But all they want to do is tie the poem to a chair with rope and torture a confession out of it.
They begin beating it with a hose to find out what it really means.
To Waken an Old Lady - Poem by William Carlos Williams
Old age is a flight of small cheeping birds skimming bare trees above a snow glaze.
Gaining and failing they are buffeted by a dark wind --
But what?
On harsh weed stalks the flock has rested -- the snow is covered with broken seed husks and the wind tempered with a shrill piping of plenty.
Acquainted with the Night-- Robert Frost
I have been one acquainted with the night.
I have walked out in rain—and back in rain.
I have outwalked the furthest city light.
I have looked down the saddest city lane.
I have passed by the watchman on his beat and dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.
I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet When far away an interrupted cry
Came over houses from another street, but not to call me back or say good-bye; And further still at an unearthly height, One luminary clock against the sky
Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right I have been one acquainted with the night.

The poem "Ode to Evening" by William Collins is an invocation to the personified spirit of evening. In three sentences: It addresses the modest and reserved nymph of evening, describing her as a calm votress who leads the fragrant hours and elves in preparing her shadowy chariot as the bright-haired sun retreats. The poet seeks the nymph's guidance in singing a softened strain to suit the stillness of her darkening vale, and expresses his hope that she will continue to inspire fancy, friendship, science and peace throughout the changing seasons.

The first stanza depicts a nice spring day with showers, singing nightingales, and people socializing outdoors.

The document provides background information on Percy Bysshe Shelley and his poem "Ode to the West Wind." It summarizes the themes and imagery in the poem, which addresses the powerful west wind and asks it to spread the poet's words throughout the world.

The document provides context and summaries for Tennyson's poem "The Lady of Shalott". It describes the Lady living alone on an island weaving what she sees in a mirror, forbidden to look directly at Camelot.

As a poet, his works were characterized by rich sensory imagery and themes from Greek mythology. Some of his most famous works included the poem "Ode to Autumn".

The poem evokes all five senses through vivid descriptions of the sights, sounds, smells and textures of the falling season. Keats was a master of using techniques like imagery, personification and apostrophe to craft detailed poetic portraits that immersed readers
The scarecrow watches over the cornfield at night and in the morning. During the day, it sways in the wind like a dancer on a stake, feeling the music of the motion. Once, it observed a black snake flowing down a hole with more surprise than its painted-on eyes. The scarecrow finds moments of life and observation despite being made of sticks.
Shakespeare's Sonnet 73 describes the aging process through metaphors of autumn and dying fires. The speaker sees himself as leaves hanging onto bare branches while winter approaches, representing old age. He is like the fading light of sunset, being taken by black night, a metaphor for death. The glowing remains of a dying fire on the ashes of youth symbolize life burning out as one grows older. This realization makes the speaker's love stronger as he acknowledges that life is fleeting.

Children are not born knowing rules, they learn these by degrees – rules of the home, the family car, public transport, publi places, sports grounds, places of worship, and so on. School communities are no exception. School and classroom rules exist to ensure harmony for all, serving as a reminder that, among other things, teachers have a right to teach and students have a right to learn – in a happy, safe, and secure environment. When it comes to protecting the rights of the members belonging to these learning communities, the rules and responsibilities, as well as the consequences for not adhering to these, need to be clearly stated, understood and respected.
This document describes a project between several schools in different countries about learning rules and social skills.

2. Autumn by William MorrisLaden Autumn here I standWorn of heart, and weak of hand:Nought but rest seems good to me,Speak the word that sets me free.
3. Autumn Day by Rainer Maria RilkeLord: it is time. The summer was immense.Lay your shadow on the sundialsand let loose the wind in the fields.Bid the last fruits to be full;give them another two more southerly days,press them to ripeness, and chasethe last sweetness into the heavy wine. Whoever has no house now will not build one anymore.Whoever is alone now will remain so for a long time,will stay up, read, write long letters,and wander the avenues, up and down,restlessly, while the leaves are blowing.
4. Autumn Birds by John Clare The wild duck startles like a sudden thought,And heron slow as if it might be caught.The flopping crows on weary wings go byAnd grey beard jackdaws noising as they fly.The crowds of starnels whizz and hurry by,And darken like a clod the evening sky.The larks like thunder rise and suthy round,Then drop and nestle in the stubble ground.The wild swan hurries hight and noises loudWith white neck peering to the evening clowd.The weary rooks to distant woods are gone.With lengths of tail the magpie winnows onTo neighbouring tree, and leaves the distant crowWhile small birds nestle in the edge below.
5. Autumn by Siegfried SassoonOctober's bellowing anger breaks and cleaves The bronzed battalions of the stricken wood In whose lament I hear a voice that grieves For battle’s fruitless harvest, and the feud Of outraged men. Their lives are like the leavesScattered in flocks of ruin, tossed and blown Along the westering furnace flaring red. O martyred youth and manhood overthrown, The burden of your wrongs is on my head.
6. Autumnby George Bacovia A gunshot's powerful reportCracks from the fringes of the town;The metal sound of trumpetersDown at the barracks ... it is autumn A school bell also can be heard,In the morning it's deserted, windy;Papers and leaves wheel round the squareIn dizzy spins, haphazardly With a stern, overbearing spire,The cathedral looks to the horizon;The town gardens are in tearsAnd shed their leaves throughout the town And, as in times of old, a hornComes from the fringes in alarm,The metal sound of trumpetersDown at the barracks ... it is autumn
7. A Song of an Autumn Night by Wang Wei Under the crescent moon a light autumn dew Has chilled the robe she will not change -- And she touches a silver lute all night, Afraid to go back to her empty room.
8. As Summer into Autumn slips by Emily DickinsonAs Summer into Autumn slipsAnd yet we sooner say"The Summer" than "the Autumn," lestWe turn the sun away,And almost count it an AffrontThe presence to concedeOf one however lovely, notThe one that we have loved --So we evade the charge of YearsOn one attempting shyThe Circumvention of the ShaftOf Life's Declivity.
9. Autumn Autumn, you are the season about loss. There is sadness as the leaves drop from your trees. And I crunch them under my feet. The sound, reminding me of the breaking of hearts when relationships end. Bareness of trees, reminding me I'm getting older as another year comes to an end. And winter approaches with her loneliness.

The name -- of it -- is "Autumn" – by Emily Dickinson The name -- of it -- is "Autumn" --The hue -- of it -- is Blood --An Artery -- upon the Hill --A Vein -- along the Road --Great Globules -- in the Alleys --And Oh, the Shower of Stain --When Winds -- upset the Basin --And spill the Scarlet Rain --It sprinkles Bonnets -- far below --It gathers ruddy Pools --Then -- eddies like a Rose -- away --Upon Vermilion Wheels --
