November Night by Adelaide Crapsey     Listen. . .   With faint dry sound, Like steps of passing ghosts, The leaves, frost-crisp'd, break from the trees And fall.   Today's poem is in the public domain.  Poetry by Crapsey The Complete Poems and Collected Letters November 2, 2012 Adelaide Crapsey was born in 1878. She is known for developing a variation on the cinquain now referred to as the "American cinquain."  Also by Crapsey Amaze The Sun-Dial The Guarded Wound Poem-A-Day started as a National Poetry Month program in 2006, delivering daily poems from newly-published poetry titles.   Due to popular demand, Poem-A-Day became a year-round program in 2010, featuring original, never-before-published poems by contemporary poets on weekdays, and classic poems on weekends.   Browse the Poem-A-Day archive for selections since 2010.  Thanks for being a part of the Academy of American Poets community. To learn about other programs, including National Poetry Month, Poem In Your Pocket Day, the annual Poets Forum, and more, visit Poets.org.
