IN AUTUMN, by ARTHUR WILLIAM SYMONS Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Frail autumn lights upon the leaves Last Line: That takes the light and colour from the day! Subject(s): Autumn; Seasons; Fall | ||||||||
Frail autumn lights upon the leaves Beacon the ending of the year; The windy rains are here, Wet nights, and blowing winds about the eaves. Here in the valley, mists begin To breathe about the river side The breath of autumn-tide; The dark fields wait to take the harvest in. And you, and you are far away. Ah, this it is, and not the rain Now loud against the pane, That takes the light and colour from the day! | 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 NERVES by ARTHUR WILLIAM SYMONS |
