Welcome!
Welcome to our seasonal Nature Poetry studies! We are so excited to share this
adventure in learning with you. Each poetry selection includes an illustrated poster for
display, as well as traceable print copywork to practice letter formation and traceable
cursive printables for older children. Sign up for the Books and Willows Newsletter to
be updated on each new release and gain access to all our FREE Nature Study learning
resources.

Printing Tips & Terms of Use

I recommend downloading your files to your computer and opening in a pdf reader
program (i.e. Adobe Acrobat Reader) before printing. For durability, print learning card
printables on card stock or watercolor paper. If you have trouble printing any of your
images, choose "print as an image" to troubleshoot.

 September
by Helen Hunt Jackson (1831 – 1885)

The golden-rod is yellow;

The corn is turning brown;
The trees in apple orchards
With fruit are bending down.
The gentian’s bluest fringes
Are curling in the sun;
In dusty pods the milkweed
Its hidden silk has spun.
The sedges flaunt their harvest,
In every meadow nook;
And asters by the brook-side
Make asters in the brook.
From dewy lanes at morning
the grapes’ sweet odors rise;
At noon the roads all flutter
With yellow butterflies.
By all these lovely tokens
September days are here,
With summer’s best of weather,
And autumn’s best of cheer.
But none of all this beauty
Which floods the earth and air
Is unto me the secret
Which makes September fair.
‘T is a thing which I remember;
To name it thrills me yet:
One day of one September
I never can forget.
