Analysis of September
Lucy Maud Montgomery 1874 (New London, Prince Edward Island) – 1942 (Toronto)
Lo! a ripe sheaf of many golden days
Gleaned by the year in autumn's harvest ways,
With here and there, blood-tinted as an ember,
Some crimson poppy of a late delight
Atoning in its splendor for the flight
Of summer blooms and joys
This is September.
