September
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
1807 to 1882
I bear the Scales, where hang in equipoise
The night and day; and when unto my lips
I put my trumpet, with its stress and noise
Fly the white clouds like tattered sails of ships;
The tree-tops lash the air with sounding whips;
Southward the clamorous sea-fowl wing their flight;
The hedges are all red with haws and hips,
The Hunter's Moon reigns empress of the night.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's September
I am busy working to bring Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's "September" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the home page for other musical arrangements or learn more about Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "September" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
