Yet One Smile More
Yet one smile more, departing, distant sun! Yet one rich smile, and we will try to bear The piercing winter frost, and winds, and darkened air. ~William Cullen Bryant
Stately November
“November is usually such a disagreeable month...as if the year had suddenly found out that she was growing old and could do nothing but weep and fret over it. This year is growing old gracefully...just like a stately old lady who knows she can be charming even with gray hair and wrinkles.” ~L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Avonlea
As the Sun Sets on Autumn
I love this poem by Stanley Horowitz: "Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all." We're reaching the point now where the etching is emerging from the mosaic.
