Autumn is in the Air


Jean
 September
by Helen Hunt Jackson
(excerpt)

The goldenrod is yellow;

The corn is turning brown;
The trees in apple orchards
With fruit are bending down.

From dewy lanes at morning

The grapes' sweet odors rise;
At noon the roads all flutter
With yellow butterflies.
By all these lovely tokens

September days are here,
With summer's best of weather,
And autumn's best of cheer.

 Autumn is my favorite season. Jean, a young Frenchman, prepares for it with his blue and yellow scarf. His far away gaze makes us wonder what he sees. The gold, green and red patchwork fields yonder, perhaps.
