Soft hues of amber, crimson and gold
Awaken my thoughts to the gentleness
Of this crisp Autumn hope that flows
Through my veins, bleeding whimsical
Mysteries, inspirations and compassion
The leaves aren’t the only ones to change
With the urgent caress of this fresh season
Which seizes hearts with a grasp of brilliant
Creativity, venturing to enlighten and impress
Spiritual intimacy, dreams of serene secrets
With this air caressing me, breathlessly
Ensuring me that light will always surround me
With a sense of goodness and kindness
Feelings that combine to create a haven
Of hope, faith and love which God stirs inside
Autumn desires to fulfill me with peace
And I yearn to keep its revelations within
Where I can grasp the insights that are left
Arousing moments of purity that frees
The soul to reach toward paradise with Him
The One who saves to the utmost and lives
To free the prisoner from the painfulness of sin
Which whispers to the mind – fear and anxiety
The farthest thing from the truth that liberates
Pardons sin and gives mere man a new start
This season reminds me of the Son of God
Who gave His life to save a lost and dying world
From the sorrow, pain and agony of a afterlife
Without the One who created man and sent
Jesus to die so that we could be born again!
With my pen, I praise the One who brings
Sincere joy, hope and love that lives eternally!
