In honor of the first hard frost, and Occupy Oakland — and Shep, who shuffled off the mortal coil yesterday. This is an old favorite song of mine.

Bitter for Sweet

Summer is gone with all its roses,
Its sun and perfumes and sweet flowers,
Its warm air and refreshing showers:
And even Autumn closes.

Yea, Autumn’s chilly self is going,
And winter comes which is yet colder;
Each day the hoar-frost waxes bolder
And the last buds cease blowing.

(Christina Georgina Rossetti arr. John Chorbajian)
