A Calendar of Sonnets: September by Helen Hunt Jackson
O golden month! How high thy gold is heaped!
The yellow birch-leaves shine like bright coins strung
On wands; the chestnut's yellow pennons tongue
To every wind its harvest challenge. Steeped
In yellow, still lie fields where wheat was reaped;
And yellow still the corn sheaves, stacked among
The yellow gourds, which from the earth have wrung
Her utmost gold. To highest boughs have leaped
The purple grape,
—last thing to ripen, late
By very reason of its precious cost.
O Heart, remember, vintages are lost
If grapes do not for freezing night-dews wait.
Think, while thou sunnest thyself in Joy's estate,
Mayhap thou canst not ripen without frost!
Faces of Wave Hill
Here, visitors might discover a planting or plant combination that’s relatable and imagine, 'maybe I could do this; I could make this.' That intimacy, that scale, allows visitors to fully get away, to breathe and let the experience wash over them. It’s like coming back home.
Support Wave Hill
