“Can we see thee, and not remember
Thy sun-brown cheek and hair sun-golden,
O sweet September?”
Francis Turner Palgrave (1824–1897) English poet and critic
The Golden Land
Context: Kiss and cling to them, kiss and leave them,
Bright and beguiling:—
Bright and beguiling, as She who glances
Along the shore and the meadows along,
And sings for heart's delight, and dances
Crowned with apples, and ruddy, and strong:—
Can we see thee, and not remember
Thy sun-brown cheek and hair sun-golden,
O sweet September?
“Ant-swarming city, city abounding in dreams,
Where ghosts in broad daylight accost the passerby!”
