Wednesday Words - Autumn Within


It is autumn; not without
But within me is the cold.

Youth and spring are all about;

It is that I have grown old.

...
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, "Autumn Within"

  1. We never had real autumn here, but the photo shows it, and the poem amplifies it.... Such a nice and serene autumn. Cheers, ~bangchik
