On the tree-lined street
blazing, brilliant golds and reds
like leaf landing lights
I'm just a regular guy who was
tempted to lose all hope but did not. It was God who made the difference.

On the tree-lined street
blazing, brilliant golds and reds
like leaf landing lights

rising harvest moon
silhouettes the hungry hawk
tomorrow, the hunt
But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently
Romans 8:25 (NIV)

Young tree with four leaves
Had you heard about the fall?
So little. So much!
A working man may or may not have enough to eat, but at least he can get a good night’s sleep. A rich man, however, has so much that he stays awake worrying.
Ecclesiastes 5:12 (GNT)

when the air turns crisp
with slippery leaves underfoot
the ground a canvas

As the boats sail by,
each of us is an island.
Will they come ashore?
A man who has friends must show himself friendly, and there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
Proverbs 18:24 (MEV)

Just how much longer
will the changing leaves stay green?
End. Begin again.
“There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven.” Ecclesiastes 3:1

so many a storm
slowly dissolving the rocks
the steadfast lighthouse

Sturdy wild flowers.
Do you ever contemplate
how soon comes the fall?
“Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.”– 2 Corinthians 4:16 (NIV)

thick smoke on the hill
means the wildfires rage unseen
and so too in life
All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field. The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever.
Isaiah 40:6,8

tubes of tempera
God gives each of us colors
paint earth with flowers!
Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.
1 Peter 4:10
