Appreciating Autumn

©2011 Susan Noyes Anderson

Autumn is a feeling,

and it takes you for a ride.

It puts you in the driver’s seat

and welcomes you inside.

Fall paints as many colors as

a rainbow, bright and bold,

and teaches you to find what’s true

in orange, red, and gold.

It shows you what you’re made of,

and the harvesting feels good.

Hard work is never wasted

when you’ve done the best you could.

To reap a great reward brings joy

and deep reflection, too.

The heart remembers all is well,

and love belongs to you.

As seasons come and seasons go,

every end is new.
