Autumn With Emily


The morns are meeker than they were,
  The nuts are getting brown;
The berry' cheek is plumper,
  The rose is out of town.

The maple wears a gayer scarf,
  The field a scarlet gown,
Lest I should be old-fashioned
  I'll put a trinket on.
    Thank you, Miss Dickenson.  I like to read that poem every autumn as soon as the the leaves turn.  When I was deciding how to spend my clothing budget for this first month of fall, this dress was at the top of the list and I'm so glad I bought it.  It's unlined, so a slip and chemise are a must, but the colors are so vibrant.  I intend to wear this to the first of the fall harvest festivals in the area starting next weekend.  I have missed this folksy little slice of American Culture and I can't wait.
