A few late asters fringe the roadsides; an occasional bee hums loudly in among them; but there is no sound of laughter, and no shine of raindrops in the broken hoary seed-stalks that strew the way. If the daisy-buds laugh, as surely they do in June, why should not the wind sob and the rain weep as surely they do in October?
"The 'sobbing wind, the 'weeping rain, 'Tis time to give the lie To these old superstitious twain That poets sing and sigh. "Taste the sweet drops, no tang of brine, Feel them they do not burn; The daisy-buds, whereon they shine, Laugh, and to blossoms turn" that is, in June they do; but do they in October? There are no daisies to laugh in October.
