The Waking
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I feel my fate in what I cannot fear.
I learn by going where I cannot go.
We think by feeling. What is there to know?
I hear my being dance from ear to ear.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Of those so close beside me, which are you?
God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there,
And learn by going where I have to go.
Light takes the Tree, but who can tell us how?
The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair;
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Great Nature has another thing to do
To you and me; so take the lively air,
And, lovely, learn by going where to go.
This shaking keeps me steady. I should know.
What falls away is always. And is near.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I learn by going where I have to go.
--Theodore Roethke

Hemispheric Conditions
Why doesn't South America have hurricanes? What about Australia? Does it? Do you think it has to do with clockwise and counter?
I googled and found out some interesting things about all this. They do move in different directions in each hemisphere and are called different names (as Scaryduck commented). They are cyclones in the Southern Hemisphere and typhoons in the Pacific. I still don't recall South America having the destruction from so many tropical storms that turned into much worse that we've had. I have to go to work at China Place now and will research this later unless some of you know the answers.
