Persian Westender

Merci Mehrban

The Updike's poem connects well with characteristics of September (e.g. school, nature,...) as a turning point of season and time...

Cheers 

September

Thanks persian westender --- here is Updike's September 

The breezes taste 

Of apple peel. 

The air is full 

Of smells to feel– 

Ripe fruit, old footballs, 

Drying grass, 

New books and blackboards 

Chalk in class. 

The bee, his hive 

Well-honey, hums 

While Mother cuts 

Chrysanthemums. 

Like plates washed clean 

With suds, the days 

Are polished with 

A morning haze.

John Updike  

Dear M. Saadat Nouri

 Many Thanks for the references to 'September Poetry'.

I would add one Haiku to this little collection:

September haiku

Let’s go fly a kite 
In this cool September night 
Only you and I 

Benedict Graumann

Beautiful

Thanks.
And here are two other famous poems on September:

1. "Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh so mellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain so yellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a young and a callow fellow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow--follow, oh-oh." 
-  Try to Remember, Lyrics by Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt

2. "By all these lovely tokens
September days are here,
With summer’s best of weather
And autumn’s best of cheer."
-   Helen Hunt Jackson

Very nice

Thanks for sharing.
