Vachel Lindsay - The Moon's the North Wind's Cooky

The Moon's the North Wind's cooky.
He bites it, day by day,
Until there's but a rim of scraps
That crumble all away.

The South Wind is a baker.
He kneads clouds in his den,
And bakes a crisp new moon that . . . greedy 
North . . . Wind . . . eats . . . again!

Poet: Vachel Lindsay Poem: The Moon's the North Wind's Cooky Comment 1 of 1, added on April 7th, 2006 at 7:22 AM. when I first read this poem, I thought back to more innocent times when there was more fantasy in the lives of children; the animation of inanimate objects like the moon, etc. I'm taking a chance on sending it to my granddaughter (13 yrs) as I believe that she will like it. grampy from Canada More Comments >> Are you looking for more information on this poem?
