Fifty Shades of June

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

The sixth month of the Gregorian calendar heralds a new season – Summer. Lengthening days, Sunshine days, Glorious days! In this month our classic poets flex their lexicons with verse that describes all manner of events. The weather may be warm or windy, showers, squalls and storms may momentarily darken skies with grey foreboding but Nature will soon be at work again on a palette of such bright and dazzling hues that the landscape is reborn again. 1 - Fifty Shades of June - An Introduction 2 - June by Horatio Alger Jr 3 - June by Francis Ledwidge 4 - Verses to Her Highness, the Duchess, June 3rd 1665 by John Henry Dryden 5 - Sonnet LXII Off Ostend, June 11th 1837 by Henry Alford 6 - A Match by Algernon Swinburne 7 - A Red, Red Rose by Robert Burns 8 - Epithalamion by James Elroy Flecker 9 - A Man Young and Old - Summer and Spring by William Butler Yeats 10 - A June Night by Emma Lazarus 11 - A Night in June by Alfred Austin 12 - Dog Days by Amy Lowell 13 - Summer by Khalil Gibran 14 - Sonnet 13 - Summer Fruit by Rainer Maria Rilke 15 - A Summer Night by George William Russell 16 - June Night by Sara Teasdale 17 - A Night in June by James Edwin Campbell 18 - Dusk in June by Sara Teasdale 19 - All in June by William Henry Davies 20 - Bee by Emily Dickinson 21 - Summer Wind by William Cullen Bryant 22 - June by James Whitcomb Riley 23 - Across the Red Sky by Katherine Mansfield 24 - The Thrush's Nest by John Clare 25 - June, A Tale by William Cowper 26 - Beachey Head by Charlotte Smith 27 - To June by George MacDonald 28 - There is A June When Corn is Cut by Emily Dickinson 29 - Wishes of an Elderly Man Wished at a Garden Party, June 1914 by Walter Alexander Raleigh 30 - Bed in Summer by Robert Louis Stevenson 31 - The Idlers Calender - Twelve Sonnets for the Months - June by Wilford Scawen Blunt 32 - The Human Seasons by John Keats 33 - Summer by Christina Rossetti 34 - Binsey Poplars by Gerard Manley Hopkins 35 - I Have Heard the Sunset Song of the Birches by Stephen Crane 36 - How Did the Rose by Hafiz 37 - Pied Beauty by Gerard Manley Hopkins 38 - The Longest Day by William Wordsworth 39 - At the Sunrise, 1848 by Dante Gabriel Rossetti 40 - Sonnet LVI Written at York on the Day of the Coronation of Queen Victoria June 28th, 1838 by Henry Alford 41 - Hymn For St John's Eve the 29th June by John Henry Dryden 42 - Hymn For the Dedication of Memorial Hall at Cambridge June 23rd 1874 by Oliver Wendell Holmes 43 - To William Hayley Esq, June 29th 1793 by William Cowper 44 - June 14th by Maria Frances Cecilia Cowper 45 - On My Leaving London, June the 29th by Sarah Fyge-Egerton 46 - Pleasure's Past by John Clare 47 - A Gleam of Sunshine by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 48 - Sweet Empty Sky of June by Henry Vaughan 49 - June by William Cullen Bryant 50 - June at Woodruff by James Whitcomb Riley 51 - Angels of Sunderland, In Memoriam, June 16th 1893 by John Hartley Author - Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
