Woodbines In October

by Charlotte Fiske Bates

As dyed in blood, the streaming vines appear,
While long and low the wind about them grieves;
The heart of autumn must have broken here
And poured Its treasure out upon the leaves.

Words inspired by the garden are the sweetest, most beautiful words of all.
