"For our momentary, light distress, this passing trouble, is producing for us an
eternal weight of glory, a fullness beyond all measure, surpassing all comparisons,
a transcendent splendor and an endless blessedness."
(2 Corinthians 4:17)

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.
"September"
Lucy Maude Montgomery
(1874-1942)
Canadian writer and poet
Author of the "Anne of Green Gables" series.
