The Autumn Gala

 Autumn's gala is out there on display 
Rocking and rolling the senses away
In the magical splendour of the fall
That captivates the hearts of one and all.

Elegant is the autumn time of year
When leaves adjust the colours of their gear
From leaves of green to gold, yellow and red
Before they fall onto their sleepy bed. 

Join in the dancing o'er whispering breeze
That sway regal branches of stately trees
Lifting leaves to float down to their demise 
In the gala of autumn's paradise.

Autumn reminds us that life doesn’t last
So we should enjoy each moment that’s cast
Life is a precious God given treasure
That leads to His Holy house for ever.

Dear Beryl, I want to be invited to the Gala that you are going to because it is everything that Autumn is about. Including the help of our great Lord!. Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Beautifully descriptive poem Beryl. I loved the picture you paint in words - Seeing Tom's comments made me think of Japan which we visited a few times but none so awesome as in Autumn in the cherry blossom season. I trust Alan will be better enough to travel a bit with you - Hugs Maria

Thank you Maria, how lovely that you got to visit Japan, especially seeing the awesome of autumn. I hope one day Alan and me will be able to have a holiday. We had some wonderful holidays in the past, I’m very happy with that, whatever the future brings. Hugs returned… Beryl
