“The hills are in gray.
Someone will kick.
Someone will hold.
The year has grown old…..
An overcast day.
A sweet, sad day.
They’re leaving the stands.’’
— From “Fall Overcast,’’ by E.B. White (1899-1985), famed essayist, children’s book author and minor poet. He lived much of his life on a small farm on the Maine Coast.
