The name-of it- is Autumn-

The hue -of it- is Blood-

An Artery-upon the Hill-

When Winds-upset the Basin-

And spill the Scarlet Rain-

It sprinkles Bonnets-far below-

It gathers ruddy Pools-

Then-edddies like a Rose-away-

Upon Vermillion Wheels-

Emily Dickinson  –Selected Poems 1892- Bloomsbury Poetry Classics
