Hilaire Belloc - OctoberHilaire Belloc - October
Work rating: Low


Look, how those steep woods on the mountain`s face   Burn, burn against the sunset; now the cold   Invades our very noon: the year`s grown old,   Mornings are dark, and evenings come apace.   The vines below have lost their purple grace,   And in Forrèze the white wrack backward rolled,   Hangs to the hills tempestuous, fold on fold,   And moaning gusts make desolate all the place.   Mine host the month, at thy good hostelry,   Tired limbs I`ll stretch and steaming beast I`ll tether;   Pile on great logs with Gascon hand and free,   And pour the Gascon stuff that laughs at weather;   Swell your tough lungs, north wind, no whit care we,   Singing old songs and drinking wine together.
