CELESTE: 10. LOVE IN AUTUMN, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: It is already autumn, and not in my heart only
Last Line: Yet, leaves, ye have had your rapture, and thou, poor heart, thy summer!
Subject(s): Autumn; Love; Seasons; Fall


It is already Autumn, and not in my heart only,
The leaves are on the ground,
Green leaves untimely browned,
The leaves bereft of Summer, my heart of Love left lonely.

Swift, in the masque of seasons, the moment of each mummer,
And even so fugitive
Love's hour, Love's hour to live:
Yet, leaves, ye have had your rapture, and thou, poor heart, thy Summer!
