Winds on the hill

‘Wind On The Hill’ by A. A. Milne contains the thoughts of a child-like narrator who is chasing after his wildly blowing kite. 

The poem begins with the speaker wondering over the origin and destination of the wind. He is chasing his kite along a hill, trying to keep a hold of the string. The boy looks into the future and imagines the kite being ripped from his hands. It would fly for a night and a day and then eventually he would find it. When this happened it would imbue him with an answer to the question of where the wind is going. He states that he’d be able to relay this answer to the others, although he still wouldn’t know where the wind comes from.
