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 I can no longer run on the treadmill...
DYK I am recruiting my SIL to start the Couch to 5K with me...I need a workout buddy or I slack
DYK she has never run and I feel like I have never run when I try to run, so we should be on the same page!

DYK I fell on a treadmill once
DYK by the time it came to a stop I was already in a heap on the floor, so I'm not sure how effective the emergency stop is...?

DYK I realized I had not taken my vitamin D in several weeks (kept forgetting to put it with my other vitamins for the morning)
DYK for the past few weeks I had been rather "blah"
DYK I have been taking it again this week and feel like a different person!

DYK wonder what the research would have to say about Yo Gabba Gabba? They are *always* dancing, but that makes Loran dance, which I love
DYK I actually enjoy the show
