October Days In her beautiful scarlet colors Nature paints with lavish hand All the flaming sumac bushes far and near; And a teeming gorgeous beauty Is beheld throughout the land On a frosty morn in autumn-time of year. When the harvests all are gathered, And the roads are smooth and dry, With a tang of cool and bracing atmosphere, As the geese are flying southward, Through the blue and cloudless sky, There’s a tranquil charm to autumn-time of year.
