NOVEMBER, by ALICE BENSON First Line: Silence the wind in the weeping willows Last Line: Hoar frost covers the upland ground. Subject(s): Autumn; Seasons; Fall | ||||||||
Silence the wind in the weeping willows -- Muffle the night hawk's muted cry -- Still the wail of the broad-leafed aspen Quivering under the graying sky. Quiet the crowing voice of the cockerel -- Muzzle the howl of the whimpering hound, Then chant to the earth of her new born splendor: Hoar frost covers the upland ground. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...OUR AUTUMN by ELIZABETH AKERS ALLEN AN AUTUMN JOY by GEORGE ARNOLD A LEAF FALLS by MARION LOUISE BLISS THE FARMER'S BOY: AUTUMN by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD A LETTER IN OCTOBER by TED KOOSER AUTUMN EVENING by DAVID LEHMAN EVERYTHING THAT ACTS IS ACTUAL by DENISE LEVERTOV UTOPIA by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON SONNETS ATTEMPTED IN THE MANNER OF CONTEMPORARY WRITERS: 3 by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE |
