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 eeek 5pm

dyk a terrible time at our house -- even though I've already fed the kids --

dyk I am going to start baths I think -- get everyone scrubbed clean, hair done, brushed, dried and clip finger nails and toenails

dyk the kids have school pictures this week so tomorrow night I'll prob cut Dek's hair too -- he's a little bit shaggy over the ears! haha

dyk Dek has a loose tooth -- did I already post this?

dyk well, it's his first loose tooth and it's apparently epic.

dyk he's upset about it -- it moves when he eats... is it ready to come out?

dyk I told him when you can wiggle it and it is ready, it won't hurt it'll just pop out or fall out --

dyk it is not ready yet

DYK congratulations to everything for your son!

DYK that's an amazing deal on the house. Was it in foreclosure or anything like that?

DYK and last night, I did look for exit 110. Wow. It's a beautiful area, but I imagined you driving from there to your work exit.
