Breathtaking

Breathe easier and healthier because Autumn has arrived.

Rest O ye weary soul; relax and take a walk through golden lanes.

Easy does it, stretch at high noon; exhale and chill with the sunset.

Autumn leaves are preparing to leave, but not before their golden display.

Take it in, tell a friend, and an enemy too if you have one; all eyes open!

Heaven has no comparison, no rivals, but Autumn is running second.

Tune out the Summer; she's gone and won't be back for several months.

Air conditioners, gifts from God, life-savers, but Autumn bids them farewell.

Kites aren't just for kids; they are feeling the wind as well as anybody.

In my opinion, at least where I abode, it doesn't get better than Autumn.

Nights are coming sooner; the light is compassionate toward the darkness.

God sets the seasons, and when I see trees in Fall, I simply say, "Behold my Father, The Painter".

His portraits and autumnal painting are truly magnificent. I love your analogy of God as painter - the eternal source of creativity and new creations. Best wishes and blessings for the contest Curtis!

Thanks so much for sharing this, making me delight virtually with Autumn, and express this, too: "Behold my Father, The Painter". It is because I live in an "Autumnless" country where there are two seasons-Dry and Wet. God bless you.
