The Berry's Cheek is Plumper


Nature XXVII, Autumn
by Emily Dickinson

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 maple wears a gayer scarf,
The field a scarlet gown.
Lest I should be old-fashioned,
I'll put a trinket on.

OK, am I losing my mind, or did you blog header just change while I was posting my comment???

Mmm . . . I did it earlier today. I was just so inspired by the Japanese Maple in the back yard.
