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 purchased new underwear yesterday...wow did THAT make a difference!
DYK did not need to wear my spanx with my dress today either, which was a nice surprise...so even though the scale is not being my friend right now, the working out is still shrinking the post-baby fluff...sloooowly, but surely

DYK I bought a new shower curtain yesterday and decided to make a new tryptic series to match it. The fish I had painted back when we moved in need to go!

Dyk ok so it doesn't help matters that Kayte wrecked my truck while we were in Las Vegas?

Dyk or the fact that my son was arrested on some asinine charges?

Dyk or Keith's daughter has some serious addiction problems?

Dyk or there is a trial looming in the case of Keith's father's death that he may have to leave the state at any notice to attend?

Dyk no I can't imagine why I can't sleep through the night?

Dyk feels so good to say all that to all of you?
