The leaves
will change soon
There will be a myriad of colors
Cool weather will seek our skin
The animals will go into their slumber
The smell of chimneys smoking
Will drift in the wind
The season of change is upon us
It will get dark sooner
As the time will fall back
The squirrels will get their last acorns
The bears will find their dens
Winter’s breath will be upon us
The restless wind will blow
In our faces when we venture out
The sun will meander behind clouds
The moon will fill the night air
And the trees’ shadows will be cast
Is it God who causes all of this
The piles of leaves in the backyard
That children love to jump in
The beauty of trees in the valley,
Or the trees that adorn the mountain
And the time of thanksgiving is upon us
We must remember what got us here
Whether the season of change is in our
hearts
Or our lives are such that change
isn’t required
The ride to this point must be remembered
So we can change things on that road
That we call life
Time is the supreme teacher
Take notice of the fall
The inevitable is upon us
Seek the truth of the seasons
From summer to fall
From fall to winter
From winter to spring
For the inevitable is the change
And that is the truth
