Since with the North Carolina summers we were
thoroughly enthralled
We decided when we retired to experience the Fall.
So off we drove to NC when we retired from the
school.
And arrived to find the leaves still green but
the temperature was cool.
Today we noticed with this retirement we had
some time to bide
So upon the Blue Ridge Parkway we decided to
take a ride.
We drove to the higher elevations as we are wont
to do
And found the trees on the mountain tops were
slowly changing hues.
The colors were not vibrant yet, in fact they
were still a little faint
It’s as if God in all his artistry had just
begun to paint.
But even at this early stage it was easy for us
to see
The potential in the canvas of the masterpiece
to be.
We felt blessed to be among the trees, to see the
clouds and sky
As we viewed this unfinished work of art
unfolding before our eyes.
Now with the North Carolina Autumn we are thoroughly
enthralled
For we get to view and be a part of this year’s painting
of the Fall.
