AUTUMNS SNOW

The early snow came as quite a surprise
As leaves hadn’t fallen completely
Autumns colors still painted the early sunrise
Then snowflakes came drifting discretely

The snow softly covered the pine tree boughs
God’s white confection finely sifted
A sense of adventure quite quickly aroused
Through streams of sunlight, storm clouds lifted

Footprints in the snow left winding trails
As we played and explored pristine hills
You could see God’s eye for fine details
And his infinite giftings and skills

Winters evidence came quite early this year
Natures canvas caught by surprise
The trees, the squirrels and the soft brown deer
Most surely thought it unwise

But God’s hand on things is always on time
Winter came, ordained when it should
A white snowy blanket made Autumn sublime
To prove just once more, “God is good”!
