Synopsis for "Toward the Cold Winds"

One poet dedicated his poems to this work. In the verses were the words "magnificent picture", "great meaning" and other enthusiastic epithets.

The poet is like the wind. Therefore, the poet sings when he hears gusts of wind.
The artist belongs to other elements. The artist is water and earth. His element is paint and paper and as a binder water. When he creates
graphics, a cup with his favorite drink becomes his binder.
There is a fourth element, which is fire. The creators look at him, are inspired and portray. All creative people display fire: composers, poets, and
painters.
Fire is bright and hot, light and warm, dull and cold. Heat and cold are properties of the fire element. And when such a fire
picks up the wind, then everything around him wakes up. Begins to move and live.
Does this old man want to experience once again these impulses of life. The old man's name is Diogenes. He holds his head and looks
on a young man in sportswear.
The young man is called only by the cold wind, caressing with coolness and freshness.
The young man got rid of the pillar and is preparing to meet the alluring coolness. In his hands he has a reed with a bow. It doesn't look like the sword of Diogenes at all.
A fresh wind will carry him to accomplishments.
Flags fly, sheep bleat, drums beat. These young rams appeared in the composition by chance. Nobody called them, they wandered by themselves. They have a shepherd -
kid. He is tied to a post like a young shoot.
In the fog, someone comes down in an elevator. Who are the winds carrying?
Cold wind is icy. You will need medicine for a cold, clean bandages for wounds.
