Subject(s): Earth; Hearts; Landscape; Nature; World


A carpet of gold's on the pathway
Trees aflame show against the sky.
In awe of the splendor of autumn
I humbly exclaim, "What am I?"

God's paint brush has 'lumined the hillside
With a glory no mortal can ape
And the wealth of the marvel of nature
Has hallowed this earthly landscape.

The world is drenched with a beauty
That brings pleasure tinged with pain
And souls expand to catch the glow
That hearts can scarce contain.

By the wonder of sunset and autumn
By the beauty of laughter and love
By the song of a bird in the night time
Hearts are tuned to the Father above.
