AUTUMN 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.

receive me to glory" Psalm 72:94
