Fall finally!

Rest assured!

Autumn will come!

Believe!

fall is a time to sit and

 

REFLECT

Christmas Beckons as Fall subsides

Acorns tap dance on the neighbor’s tin roof

Leaves of red and gold waltz against a blue sky

Autumn’s dance contest is always a winner

 

Bon fire smoke drifts through the air

Pumpkin pie spice is everywhere

Autumn scents create wondrous perfumery

 

Crows caucus in the nearby field

Mocking birds mimic the current hits

Autumn jingles serenade waiting fans

 

Hope’s lullaby gives comfort to loss

Faith’s sonnet lends contentment to mourners

Autumn concludes a season of grief

trying to heal

with the Joy-Fall time of year

through

art,

prayer,

and

faith

The beauty and blessings of autumn

Nothing satisfies me more than sitting on my deck with my Bible, my devotionals, my journal and a cup of coffee. This is heaven on earth.

Early light glistens on red maples and golden oaks.

Long autumn shadows dissect the green lawn in comforting patterns.

Cool breezes caress my fevered soul.

Grace comes at peaceful interludes like this morning.

Serenity is strong in quiet moments such as this.

Faith revives and hope grows when the body stills and the heart reboots.

Mercy is a gift when the spirit is at rest.

less is more-look at the little details

A colorful palette of leaves

Dance in my path.

Blue skies

Swirl on my canvas above my head.

Perhaps joy is close to my heart’s desire.
