The Wind


 
"Some one tapped at the window pane
A little while ago.
Some one runs around the house,
And whistles loud and low.
Some one shakes the garden gate,
And climbs the garden wall.
Yet when I say; -'Who's that out there?'
It's nobody at all.
He's calling down the chimney now,
With quite a noisy roar;
He's piping through the key-hole,
And he's knocking on the door.
'Come in! Come in!' But no one comes.
I peep into the hall,
And though I feel a puff of wind,
There's no one there at all."
