It means pretty much what it says, literally. First, trees in the city are just as alive and beautiful as those in the country, but we might not notice them as much because of the city noise, against which the soft sounds of leaves in the wind are too soft to be heard. But occasionally, when the wind is strong, even city trees make themselves known, as they are much louder than the city noises. Thus, there is hidden power in things that might not ordinarily seem powerful.
Trees will be trees no matter where they are

vbnmnn,
Edna St. Vincent Millay adopted "Vincent" from her mother's maiden name, which she added to her own as a tribute to her mother. This name change allowed her to establish her own identity and distinguish herself as a poet.
