O Only God could paint the world with colors bright
And hues that to our eyes do bring delight!
C Could it be that He is showing us the way to live?
Beauty found does still abound- be sensitive!
T To walk within His forests, rich with wonder,
Crackling branches, burning leaves- His love I ponder.
O Oh what visions He’s provided, knowing well we are inspired
By the brilliance of the season, it is this we have desired.
B Bitter cold is fast approaching, but autumn lingers on.
Leaves are falling, they are calling, watch them now -soon they’ll be gone.
E Every morning see the sun rise bringing color just alive
With dew drops clinging, birds are singing –life will thrive!
R Rich is the Harvest Moon, and in my dreams I see it smile,
For October is resplendent in God’s beauty all the while.
