November

By William H. Simpson


From “In Hopi-land and Other Lands” A THINNING of lingering leaves on the boughs,
A sudden chill on the sunny side of the house,
And honk of wild geese overhead.
Summer has fled.

Her departure does not sadden me	5
Beyond all recompense and utterly,
For you are here,
My dear, my dear.
