Nov 2016
The sun just broke through eastern sky,
a soft and gentle breeze;
Such beauty, now is all around,
fall colors in the trees!

Each change in season make me think,
to search my heart and mind;
As if My God is showing me,
the things I've left behind!

As I was taught so very young,
God planted one more seed;
A life to grow, to flourish now
to rustle in the breeze!

I grew up fast to stand so tall,
to flourish in the spring;
I felt I had it all planned out,
to stay forever green!

Bad choices made and colors changed,
my leaves began to fall;
I felt I died within myself,
in life I'd lost it all!

I turned to God as winter came,
as cold winds filled my heart;
I begged and prayed for one more chance,
in life to hit my mark!

He answered me with springtime breeze,
now touched by Master's hand;
He strengthened me through seasons change,
to grow a better man!
