As Seasons Change

Summer sang her pretty song,
But now she marches right along,
Knowing that her stay is short.
To Autumn she must soon give court.

She has warmed our hearts and lives.
We’re always glad when she arrives.
But soon we’ll see her wave “good-bye”
As Autumn’s jubilee draws nigh.

For Autumn also has a song
And has been waiting all year long
To do what she seems to do best.
By her color we’ll be much blessed.

“O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!”
Psalm 8:9 KJV
