As the sun was just beginning
to peek through a pale gray sky
I stood at my window
And welcomed the new day
There on the patio table
I saw it --
cool, glistening, dew...
something I hadn't seen
throughout the scorching days of summer
And across the lawn
a blurry half circle
of yellow fallen leaves
against the burnt green late-summer grass
Just like that
I realized that Summer and Autumn
have started their graceful dance
Seasons are changing

for Your help, Lord
that I might accept and embrace
the inevitable changes
that are quickly coming to pass,
with a grace that only comes
from knowing and trusting
in You
