Inspired by The Wind written by John Lea located in A Children’s Book of Verse, Illustrated by Eric Kincaid, Poems selected by Marjorie Rogers. (Brimax Books)
A cackle A cackle heard in corners of corners we hear
Tip toeing in the shadows it follows tickling the feet and nose all hid
Children run through the house making noise of plenty saying the wind likes me for it tickles tickles me soft
Finally it musters enough courage and says I can speak can you? Over and over it expresses emotion sometimes low and sometimes high!
Climbing up vines it says copy me copy me for I am strong and adventuresome and I like to play play so I can get faster faster
No one pays me no attention when I say dance with me dance with me like Felicia
Felicia likes me for I tickle her face, play with her hair and cool her when she is hot
I am her friend says the wind and will always be
