As The Leaves Are Falling

Nature and life

As The Leaves Are Falling

I can hear winter gently calling
As the leaves are softly falling
Hurry up no time for relaxing
Again another year is passing

This year I can make the time
For a vacation or save a dime
Times going to fast its a crime
Glory of God in life is sublime


Three Grand kids arrive this year
Much in laughter or many a tear
Loved ones held as they are dear
Sad comfort or a victorious cheer

My road has been full of memories
I see bits of some in a gentle breeze
As I look out the window at the trees
The branches laden with golden leaves

I hear the winter of my life its calling
As the old leaves start gently falling
There is the no time to start relaxing
My future, a blessing in my passing
