tasting a breath of autumn – v3

tasting the leaves,

drinking in the landscapes

the tableau of autumn

breathing in the oranges

candy apple, cinnamon,

sipping of the colors

maroon, slices of yellows,

as the seasons change

tasting a breath of autumn

captured in my lens

in my senses

shared on the ether

for others to taste

to breathe in

how green is not the leaves’ true colors

-          the green color of the leaves is not the true color

-          this is the color we have when we are being fed

-          nurtured in the spring and summer with the Word;

-          we shine our true colors in autumn

-          sharing our true color with God and the world

-          staying close to God

-          each an individual

-          shining the colors of Christ
