POEMS OF THE DAY THE SUNSET BANNER by Lenore Hetrick October carries a sunset banner, For it is the sunset of the year The hills are dying in the fire of glory, The world will soon be gray and sere But now to the sound of ancient bugles Whose notes are borne to a far-off sea , October carries a sunset banner— And it is a beautiful sight to sea! Her sunset banner is a gleaming gold--- As is the gold of the setting sun! Her sunset banner is shot with flame— As the western sky when the day is done! And now the sound of rare, old bugles, Whose notes are soft as a hidden rill , October carries her sunset banner, And, singing ,she passes beyond the hill. NATURE’S MUSIC by Lenore Hetrick I loves nature’s music, And summertime songs. In the forest her great singers Gather in throngs The wind play the harp, And the birds take the tune. The bass part is sung By the man in the moon!🌙
