My Journey to God

Seasons

The long, hot days of
Summer now gone,
Children at school with friends,
Looking for fun.

Football, volleyball,
Golf and cross country,
With soccer and band,
Choir and studying.

The warm days of fall
And cool, twilight nights
As the birds are preparing
For their annual flight.

Isn’t it grand?
Our Lord gave us seasons
To change our lives
And reasons for living.

We look forward to change
With our eyes open wide,
And thank God each day
That he’s by our side.
