The Beauty of Minnesota's Autumn (A Poem; With Notes)

The Beauty of Minnesota’s Autumn

Now droops the troubled trees The cold sunset, darkens the leaf.

A fear so holy,

A grief, elusive, Creates the changing of the year

The weary sigh—from long winds Itch the sky,--with blue tints;

A dream

For a dreamers eye

What sorrow stirs in mine? A tear, for autumn’s grave

A mist, for a winter’s sky;

In vain, in vain I rage… “Let it be autumn once again!”

Note: #931 (11/20/2005) There is no place on earth more beautiful in autumn (during the changing of the leaves), than
