Explore "Bitter for Sweet" by Christina Georgina Rossetti on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
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.
