September
The goldenrod is yellow;
The corn is turning brown;
The trees in apple orchards
With fruit are bending down;
The gentian's bluest fringes
Are curling in the sun;
In dusty pods the milkweed
It's hidden silk has spun;
The sedges flaunt their harvest
In every meadow nook,
And asters by the brookside
Make asters in the brook.
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's days are here,
With summer's best of weather
And autumns best of cheer.
