Wind And Window Flower By Robert FrostThe PoemStanza 1LOVERS, forget your love, And list to the love of these,She a window flower, And he a winter breeze.

Stanza 2When the frosty window veil Was melted down at noon,And the caged yellow bird Hung over her in tune,

Stanza 3He marked her through the pane, He could not help but mark,And only passed her by, To come again at dark.

Stanza 4He was a winter wind, Concerned with ice and snow,Dead weeds and unmated birds, And little of love could know.

Stanza 5But he sighed upon the sill, He gave the sash a shake,As witness all within Who lay that night awake.

Stanza 6Perchance he half prevailed To win her for the flightFrom the firelit looking-glass And warm stove-window light.

Stanza 7But the flower leaned aside And thought of naught to say,And morning found the breeze A hundred miles away.
