God's Autumn Landscape

God's Autumn Landscape
The scene could not be lovelier
If Monet took a brush,
And loaded it with muted colors
Of gold and red and rust.
****
Aspens glow with golden sheen.
Oaks drip burnt mahogany.
Maples are smart in crimson-red.
Willows, a grand menagerie.
****
The sun, a glowing apricot,
Stunning in a gray-blue sky.
A panorama to delight
The most critical, discerning eye.
****
This is not a Monet canvas,
Rather God's autumn landscape.
In this panorama of loveliness
He allows me to partake.
****
He's filled it up with creatures.
The winter birds on wing.
God must have surely known
The joy their homecoming brings.
****
I can hear my heart singing
It's tune so merrily.
Today I've seen the red bird dancing
With the lovely chickadee.
****
The beauty of autumn's landscape
No mortal man could paint.
None of the greatest masters
Could hope to duplicate.
****
