Autumn is here. The time has drawn near
for changes.
Look at the trees--yellow, red, and brown. We let them be, and
we see changes.
Then will come the cold soon after leaves fall. Snowflakes linger as winter unfolds.
The season changes.
Winter soon becomes spring,
blossoms flower and grow.
The forest sings with what the changes bring...
But it seems as though when our world is upside-down--
when the strong become weak, and the smile to a frown--
We resist the green turning brown, yellow, and red.
We begin to fear, worry, blame, and dread.
But we must remember with every new season,
the dying and cold does come for a reason.
After fall becomes winter, then winter the spring,
the old becomes new and growth does it bring.
So when going through trials, changes, something you fear...
just look at the trees, and to the Maker, draw near.
For when life is difficult and you want to fly away...here is a motivator to inspire your day.
