April, June, and November,

And all the rest have thirty-one;
Unless that leap year doth combine,
And give to February twenty-nine.

That come before the swallow dares, and take
The winds of March with beauty; violets, dim,
But sweeter than the lids of Juno's eyes,
Or Cytherea's breath.

The
stormy March has come at last,
With wind and clouds and changing skies;
I hear the rushing of the blast
That through the snowy valley flies.

A noise like
of a hidden brook
In the leafy mouth of June.

And
what is so rare as a day in June?
Then, if ever, come perfect days;
Then Heaven tries the earth if it be in tune,
And over it softly her warm ear lays.

us fill urns with rose-leaves in May
And hive the the trifty sweetness for December!

February face,
So full of frost, of storms, of cloudiness. ~ William Shakespeare

the approach of spring, I withdraw without
reluctance from the noisy and extensive scene of crowds without

they are maids, but the sky changes when they are wives.

April on the heel
Of limping Winter treads.

The
sweet calm sunshine of October, now
Warms the low spot; upon its grassy mould
The purple oak-leaf falls; the birchen bough
Drops its bright spoil like arrow-heads of gold.
~ William Cullen Bryant
Daffodils
that come before the swallow dares
And take the winds of March with beauty. ~ William Shakespeare
April
is the creuallest month,
breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, Mixing
Memory and desires, stirring
dull root with spring rain.
~ T.S. Eliot
Yet my heart loves December's smile
As much as July's golden beam;
Then let us sit and watch the while
The blue ice curdling on the stream.
~ Emily Jane Bronte
The world is tired, the year is old, The faded leaves are glad to
die.~ Sara Teasdale,“November.”
Talk
not of sad November, when a day
Of warm, glad sunshine fills the sky of noon, And a wind, borrowed
from some morn of June, Stirs the brown grasses and the leafless
spray. ~ John Greenleaf Whittier
