His Palette of Autumn – v3

Rich, bold, stark colors
vividness of the season
God’s artistry so evident
in his palette of autumn

bright lines of color
ablaze, alive, shimmering
calling to us, to see,
to hear God’s call

layer upon layer, radiant color
living hue upon hue
all of them shouting your praises
to you the creator of the universe

all of creation singing one song
to your majesty, to your grace
showering beauty on the world
knowing in this season more than some

that like leaves, in their perfection
singing to you at the end of life
in dying our victory, eternal
to see you in the courts of paradise
