The corn is turning brown
The trees in apple orchards
With fruit are bending down.

Effort, and
Play.

Each hour of the day,
Making new friends,
Being good as you can
Exciting discoveries,
Reading books with a friend.

With summer’s best of weather

Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh so mellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain so yellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a young and a callow fellow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow–follow, oh-oh
- Try to Remember, Lyrics by Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt

Under the harvest moon,
When the soft silver
Drips shimmering
Over the garden nights,
Death, the gray mocker,
Comes and whispers to you
As a beautiful friend
Who remembers.
- Carl Sandburg, Under the Harvest Moon
