- Description:
- The poem personifies the melancholy wailing of the autumn wind, initially questioning if it mourns nature's decay and the passing of summer. However, the wind's response reveals a deeper sorrow: it mourns not nature's temporary decline, but the blighted hopes, broken hearts, and human suffering caused by winter's harshness and lack of mutual aid.
