Autumn's Glory

 


               AUTUMN'S  GLORY


Springtime means new life and wonder

Bursting forth with beauty rare,

Summer blooms with vibrant colours,

Flowers surround us everywhere!


Autumn though, has special glory,

Radiance that is all its own

Such a pleasant glowing sweetness,

Other seasons have not known.


Autumn brings a transformation -

Foliage tints of varied hue,

Warmest colours softly blending,

Ripened fruits, nuts, berries too.


Now resplendent, trees and hedgerows

Blaze with orange, red and gold,

Like the sunset at day's ending,

Most delightful to behold.


In the "autumn" of my lifetime

May it thus be with me so,

Heart aglow with warmth and beauty,

Fruitful as I old age know.

Shirley Hirst

" Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward 

 receive me to glory" Psalm 72:94
