The Ninth Month

[jpurdy]

September was the seventh (septem) month in the old Roman calendar.
Perhaps the only thing prettier than a September morn is the sight of the Full Moon rising (on the 4th), bathing the fields in golden light.


As Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote:
The morrow was a bright September morn;
The earth was beautiful as if new-born;
There was that nameless splendor everywhere
That wild exhilaration in the air.

and also this

There are flowers enough
in the summertime,
More flowers than I can remember—
But none with the purple, gold, and red
That dyes the flowers of September!
–Mary Howitt (1799-1888)

Green and blue seem to be popular down here...... they look like parakeets on parade. :D

Am still having trouble with the boys pants down around their knee caps.
And with the long hair and ear rings who knows what exactly they are looking at.
I still wear my burr in the summer. And, medium lenght, combed hair in the winter.
It gets very (-zero f) COLD here.
Have noted that ankle lenght skirts are appearing on high school gals.
