Helen Hunt Jackson- September Poem

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
Its 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 days are here,
With summer’s best of weather
And autumn’s best of cheer.

dyk today Abigail appropriately and politely engaged another adult she doesn't know

dyk when we got to the hospital -- totally under construction -- I said to Abi as we walked in the temp main entrance -- I hope we can find the way!

dyk and a worker overheard and asked where we needed to go then led the way to the correct set of elevators

dyk and while Walking Abigail said, "Ma'am? um, my mom lets me push the uh buttons.... ...... so can I?"

dyk and the lady smiled and said yes
