The Sound of Autumn’s Fall

Autumn Landscape (Photograph by Olegas Kurasovas, My Shot)

“As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.” (Genesis 8:22)

I watch autumn leaves gently float down Their colorful leaves layer the ground The wind swirls them up as they spin around Falling again as they touch the ground I love to hear that lovely sound The sound of autumn’s fall The wind moves the trees in a gentle sway Revealing fall colors this fine autumn day A mural of colors which seem to convey A splendor of colors that harkens my way Colors so brilliant that cry out today The sound of autumn’s fall Autumn has come and the leaves now abound The kids laugh and play as they toss them around Jumping on leaves they’ve shaped in a mound A cushion of leaves between them and the ground We all love to hear that wonderful sound The sound of autumn’s fall poem by MTJ

Thoughts and Words

"For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. “ Eat and drink!” he says to you, But his heart is not with you." (Proverbs 23:7)

Thoughts that were too often Expressed by me through words Were filled with wrong intentions Which You too often heard. But locked within my mind Are words that I regret Of many spoken thoughts I wish I had repressed. You also shared Your thoughts Expressed to me through love Thoughts which soared in flight Upon the wings of doves. Your crafted words I heard Like sculpted works of art Words which melted armor To free my prisoned heart. poem by MTJ
