The air has shifted
a refreshing coolness
time to take note
feel the change
an invitation
In this season
deep color schemes of leaves
warm morning skyscapes
busy harvesting squirrels
focused bird formations
an invitation
Autumn
your invitation
like an embrace
surrounds me with goodness
causes me to ponder
awakens me to moments
to be present
to appreciate
to dwell
to breathe it all in.
The goodness of God meeting me.
For Mom and For Carol
September 2023
Wisps of color across the sky.
Hues of pink, magenta and orange
not seen in months.
A gentle coolness in the breeze.
A freshness which speaks to the
fullness of the journey.
Grey blue clouds come and go.
Like a blank canvas their invitation
is to ponder and be.
Green fading to lighter shades.
Knowing the time has been
well spent and cherished.
Another harvest from the garden.
The surprise of each picking
still delights the heart.
These sacred days filled with much.
The Season of Creation is the gift
of this season changing month
- September.
