Autumn Rhapsody

The autumn wind twirled the leaves about and made them dance,

They decorated the sidewalk with their pastel shades,

Greeting the pedestrians as they walked past,

God's miracles continue and there is a divine fresh air,

The songs of nature are heard, geese returning south for the winter,

A clear pond where the ducks swim creating patterns in the water,

Seagulls fly above with their beautiful wings landing on the shores,

Humanity embraces autumn for another year.

You christened the Autumn season in a regal fashion. Enjoyed your avian emphasis. The seasons do, indeed, carry a divine spark!
