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 lego prices -- inflation!!!! for sure

dyk I don't remember them being so expensive --

dyk I will one day write a book about Abi

dyk right now, I am too close to it, too in the "thick of things" to objectively write a book that would be helpful in addition to being a memoir of sorts

dyk we are fisher price fans as well.

dyk since purging the toys down to the bare minimum my kids have played with them every day

dyk separating out the train track to it's own container and then separated from the other toys was a good move -- and that container unit hides the plug beneatht the TV lol

dyk they have built ellaborate tracks every day

dyk Dek is working on one now and just told his friend Jaycie (3 yrs old), "No, Jace, you're not getting the point!"

dyk lol
