has claimed the life of my 60 year old sugar maple!
So, in celebration of its life, I would like to share this poem
with you by Emily Dickinson...
AUTUMN
The morns are meeker
than they were,
The nuts are getting brown;
The berry's cheek is plumper,
The rose is out of town.
The nuts are getting brown;
The berry's cheek is plumper,
The rose is out of town.
The maple wears
a gayer scarf,
The field a scarlet gown.
Lest I should be old-fashioned,
I'll put a trinket on.
The field a scarlet gown.
Lest I should be old-fashioned,
I'll put a trinket on.
So sad! But that poem is lovely. <3
