Poem by Emily Jane Brontë

* * *

Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;
Lengthen night and shorten day;
Every leaf speaks bliss to me
Fluttering from the autumn tree.

I shall smile when wreaths of snow
Blossom where the rose should grow;
I shall sing when night's decay
Ushers in a drearier day. 

1. The Wanderer from the Fold
2. The Visionary
3. Self-Interrogation
4. Shall Earth No More Inspire Thee
5. She Dried Her Tears
