The poem “Wind” inspires us to face the challenges thrown at us with grit and firmdetermination. We should be strong enough to face all the hardships of life with courage. Windsymbolizes problems and obstacles that we all face and go through at some point time in ourlives. In the poem, first stanza depicts the destruction caused by wind. The wind tears thepages of the books, brings rain again, and destroys the daily life of the weaker section of theworld. The strong or gusty winds represent turmoil and trouble in our life. These troubles are tobe ignored.The most common figure of speech in the poem is ‘Anaphore’ which means repeating ofcertain words. The repetition of the word ‘don’t’ in the first three lines of the poem is anexample of Anaphore. Also, the entire poem is a metaphor as it ends on a note of applicationto humanity to stand against all ravages, natural or man-made.In our lives, wind destructs our daily routine. It hampers and dampens the spirit of lifearound. According to the poet, rain and wind were deeds of nature that are perceived as thetempest forces which destroy the old and evil inside a man in order to create joy and liberty inhis mind. Wind is that difficult natural phenomenon which is very difficult to be predictedaccurately just as our problems which can arise from nowhere. It can hit us at any time of ourlife. It mocks the very being of being alive. For frail people, literally and metaphorically, windcreates barriers. Winds do not let a frail body or a frail mind survive but on the other hand ifyou are strong, you have the power and the will to survive and fight back, wind can never be athreat to your living being.
