Afternoon Teaisms
Rhymes and Wits
There is music in the meadows, in the air–
Autumn is here;
Skies are gray, but hearts are mellow.
William Stanley Braithwaite, (1878-1962)
"A Lyric of Autumn," Lyrics of Life and Love (1904)
Listen! the wind is rising,
and the air is wild with leaves,
We have had our summer evenings,
now for October eves!
Humbert Wolfe (1885-1940) "Autumn (Resignation)" (1926)
From ghoulies and ghosties
And long-leggedy beasties
And things that go bump in the night,
Good Lord, deliver us!
