Siegfried Sassoon - OctoberSiegfried Sassoon - October
Work rating: Low


Across the land a faint blue veil of mist   Seems hung; the woods wear yet arrayment sober   Till frost shall make them flame; silent and whist   The drooping cherry orchards of October   Like mournful pennons hang their shrivelling leaves Russet and orange: all things now decay;   Long since ye garnered in your autumn sheaves,   And sad the robins pipe at set of day.     Now do ye dream of Spring when greening shaws   Confer with the shrewd breezes, and of slopes Flower-kirtled, and of April, virgin guest;   Days that ye love, despite their windy flaws,   Since they are woven with all joys and hopes   Whereof ye nevermore shall be possessed.
