Genesis 8:1
Then God remembered Noah, and every living thing,
and all the animals that were with him in the ark. And
God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters
subsided.

The Wind and the Sun

A Fable by Aesop

The Wind and the Sun were disputing which

was the stronger.
Suddenly they saw a traveller coming down the
road, and the Sun said: "I see a way to decide
our dispute. Whichever of us can cause that
traveller to take off his cloak shall be regarded
as the stronger. You begin." So the Sun
retired behind a cloud, and the Wind began to
blow as hard as it could upon the traveller.
But the harder he blew the more closely did
the traveller wrap his cloak round him, till at
last the Wind had to give up in despair.
Then the Sun came out and shone in all his
glory upon the
traveller, who soon found it too hot to walk
with his cloak on.
Kindness effects more than severity.

The Wind
I saw you toss the kites on high
And blow the birds about the sky;
And all around I heard you pass,
Like ladies skirts across the grass
O wind, a-blowing all day long,
O wind, that sings so loud a song!

I saw the different things you did,

But always you yourself you hid.
I felt you push, I heard you call,
I could not see yourself at all
O wind, a-blowing all day long,
O wind, that sings so loud a song!

O you that are so strong and cold,

O blower, are you young or old?

Are you a beast of field and tree,
Or just a stronger child than me?
O wind, a-blowing all day long,
O wind, that sings so loud a song!
~ Robert Louis Stevenson
