Stardust on Autumn Leaves

Glistening, like dewdrops on a frosted moment, Glitter sparkling in September’s soul, Stirring the spirit with heavy hopes, dreams Alive in the one who can see beyond the traces of a chill, Into the melancholic prayers, erasing soundless tears, Embracing the sincerity of a heart who believes Even the silence of the most vibrant trees – rhythms Searching for the light who breaths Beneath the weight of a mystery, autumn’s still, cool gasp Praising the Creator of light, love, life Flowing with stardust blessings, embracing Winds of lavender time, in cobalt skies, Twilight tempts the night to hear the silence, Blessing the nestled leaves, the stunning breath Defeating all the darkness with the grace, Whispering through the light, glowing through time, A heavenly night, falling on the hills Blowing through the memories in tones of grace, Raining down songs of hope, through the serenity, Across the seas and through the valleys, Past the Creator’s brilliant heavens, Into the hues of an October melody, Trembling beautiful, stars reflecting the gentle, Sensing the creativity, the gestures of joy Moments brimming with glowing thoughts, Winds blowing through the oaks, the pines, the silence Remembering what it means to believe, In the One who continues to protect the seas, The One who gives hope to you and me, The Maker of the stars, the Creator of the trees, The One who brings the stardust dreams, Guides the soul and sends hearts true peace, The One who I know, like I know autumn’s grief, The One who takes me through the darkest dawns Into the glowing moments, when light erases Each evening’s black, with a hope that comes back After the stardust autumn finally grieves And takes the darkness with a sense of what it means To just agree, He is the answer, the hope, the grace That helps me to face each November night, With the assurance that, someday – He’ll be coming back Someday, all the glistening glow of stardust on Autumn leaves Will remember the truth about the heart’s peace, The assurance that comes from the soul’s true belief In the One who brings spirits their most assured relief, The promise of a heaven, where He’ll take away all grief, The promise of a home where we’ll never have to leave, A place where Autumn never feels the wings of each falling leaf.
