OCTOBER, by MARIE DAVIES WARREN BECKNER First Line: October is gowned in brilliant red Last Line: To hold back gray november skies. Subject(s): October | |||
October is gowned in brilliant red With a golden coronet on her head. She envies the peach-bloom tints of May, And the rose June wore on a summer day. October's gay magnificence Is but her pitiful defense! Like every woman, she but tries To hold back gray November skies. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...FACING INTO IT; FOR LARRY LEVIS by ELEANOR WILNER A VAGABOND SONG by BLISS CARMAN THE SHEPHEARDES CALENDER: OCTOBER by EDMUND SPENSER LATE AUTUMN by WILLIAM ALLINGHAM OCTOER WOODS by EMMA INGOLD BOST NORTH WIND IN OCTOBER by ROBERT SEYMOUR BRIDGES OCTOBER by WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT CHERRY TREE IN AUTUMN by MARIE DAVIES WARREN BECKNER THE ROMANCE OF THE SWAN'S NEST by ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING |
