Autumn’s Light Series: Photo 4
November 12, 2013This morning I watched the autumn light
and felt its warmth on my body like a hug and a kiss.
I gawked at the season’s hues,
studied how one color offsets another,
then yearned to travel the world
so I could pocket God’s mysterious creations . . .
the simple and the complicated wonders of nature.
My pockets would be full, no doubt,
and my eagerness with little or no self-control,
for every day I would take out autumn’s light
and hold it in the palm of my hand,
not once, not twice, but more times than I could count.
I would hold spring’s brilliant blossoms,
unbelievable sunsets, weird and strange creatures,
only to marvel and repeat this question,
“How’d you do that God?
How’d you do that?”
