September Dawning Light ~ A Verdant Song

September dawning light and wind upon garden green

Touches of golden hue upon leaves now seen

A verdant song in wind's whispers I perceive

Season of change, nature's palette within Presence conceived.

Paint Upon A Palette

paint upon a palette brush in hand
colors call to Spirit's command
strokes of color in joyful grace
the dance of all here to place
sky, water, earth within this heart
in loving celebration each stroke to start
day night the firmament so vast
with paint and brush held and cast
when each moment hours they be
behold strokes of color in reverie.

Trodden Be These Paths

Trodden be these paths
Holding to the season new
Amber, gold, scarlet and green
Nature's palette, October's hue
Leaves alight and settled some be
There is a fork in the road ahead of me
Venture new my heart does call
Change ahead in life's season of Fall.
