Wind, come softly Don't break the shuners of the windows Don't scatter the papers. Don't throw down the books on the shelf There, look what you did -- you threw them all down You tore the pages of the books. You brought rain again. You're very clever at poking fun at weaklings . Frail crumbling houses, crumbling doors, crumbling rafters, crumbling wood, crumbling bodies, crumbling lives. crumbling hearts the wind god winnows and crushes them all. He won't do what you tell him. So, come, let's build strong homes, Let's joint the doors firmly. Practise to firm the body. Make the heart steadfast. Do this, and the wind will be friends with us

Explanation:
The poet is talking to the wind. He asks the wind to come softly. So, he is saying that the wind should not be very strong, loud. It should be soft and subtle. Then he says that the wind is very powerful it is destructive, it breaks the shutters of windows and scatters the papers. When the wind is very powerful, all the books which are kept on the shelf fall down. So here, the poet is describing the power of the wind. Then he says to the wind to look at the destruction that it had done. Whenever there is a strong wind all the thing that are weak, like small plants, tiny children, etc., they all get scared and they can even fall and get hurt. We can say that in the initial part of the poem, the poet is referring to wind as a young child. He is saying that it should come softly just like a small child does. In the later part, we come to know that the wind is destructive just like a youth. Just like a young boy or a young girl who is full of energy, violence and destruction.
