Harvest

There is smoke upon the mountain
And the valley's filled with haze.
Now the autumn leaves are falling
Through these melancholy days.
As I walk the wild lake's edges
I can hear the mad loon's cry
And I search to see geese flying
In dark vee's across the sky.
And the red sun sinks in splendor,
While the harvest moon appears
To be larger and more yellow
Than it has in other years.
As I gather in the apples,
I am gathering memories too
Of flaming sugar maple trees
And of mornings pearled with dew.
Of the evening's purple shadows
And a hundred other sights
And sounds and scents and feelings
That will warm my winter nights!
