Shades of leaves -- flowers
burst forth their final stages of beauty
Magnificent hues
fill the eyes in shades of amber, red hue
Harvest aroma,
squash and pumpkins,
have readied loving families
and wide eyed ones back
to school for another year
A chill grasps night,
signaling season's end
Although, my limbs now tell the secret of the seasons,
without scent or colour
I have loved watching fall
It always amazed and reminded me,
that I’m not alone
and that all God’s creation must take the same journey
chameleons, we are all
To me, fall represents majesty of mother nature
Depicting a portrait of life;
A rising and a descent
back to the maker’s arms
we speak so much about
For all things must pass
We leave a legacy in love,
in our triumphs and yes,
in our losses
All things combined,
create a great tributary
that grows as a river,
to flow to the ocean
of new beginnings
