Clouds On the River

 When the sun rises and the clouds are walking on water.

The Sun

by Annette Wynne

Long before the postman comes

The sun begins to rise,

Far in the East if you should look

You'd find it in the skies.

At first it's just a streak of light

Then all at once the world get bright.

As I walked today I saw how beauiful it is to witness the presents of clouds come to earth.  Fog is often gloomy, so gray and thick.  But this morning the glory of the sun allowed me to witness the beauty of the cloud come to earth.

It's early in October and one doesn't expect the trees to change right away, but it does a body good to see that thay have begun to share their beauty with us.

Autumn offers us the opportunity to witness the beauty of the changes in the life of a year.  There is a glow from the trees that is just breathtaking.  And yet this is just the beginning.

Autumn at The Woods

Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, IN

 The glory in gold

From the Creator's palate

Brightens up our day

~~~~~~~

Fall at The Woods is glorious.  The trees and the campus are just so beautiful and inspiring.  For 177 years the Sisters of Providence of Saint Mahy-of-the-Woods have tended and cared for these treasures.  The environment and the care of God's creation has always been important to the sisters.

Thanks be to God!

Oh! The Rainbow!

Niagara Falls

Rainbows offer hope

The color is beyond compare

In all their glory

~~~~~~~

A few years ago we made an autumn trip to upstate New York and Niagara Falls.  It was just incredible!  The color was exquisite and the Falls were incredible.  I'd return in a heartbeat.  It's just not on the schedule this year!

A Palette of Gold

A palette of gold
Beautiful shades of color
Sun glows in the park

Sun glows in the park

Colors are from God's palette

Glory be to God

Glory be to God

So many are the wonders

So very many

Finally, I am joining A Soulful Life for Soulfood Friday

Right In My Own Front Yard

Today I join Meri for Share the Joy Thursday.   For I believe we need to find it in my life every day no matter the realities in which we live.  God is Good in so many ways even in times of trial.

Joy comes in many forms.

And this day has the potential of

being just as grand as

celebrating the beauty in

all that surrounds me.

I must be open to it!

The Glory of Fall
It is all in the colors
And the joy it brings

~~~^j^~~~

Thanks be to God!!!

The Joy in Tea Talk

I'm having...Good Earth decaf original tea.  I seem to be in a rut.  I'm enjoying these days the Good Earth Tea...EVERYDAY

My teacup... is the one I purchased on a shopping trip with my daughter-in-law, Kelly, when she and David lived in California.  It brings back grand memories of the aroma of strawberries and lemons.

I'm feeling... refreshed.  Yesterday, was a wonderful day.  I had a facial, had my hair cut and visited the dentist to have my teeth cleaned.  I feel like a new woman!

On my mind...This coming weekend and all it has to offer.  Friday night is Twilight on the Trail.  A gathering and fundraiser for the Newburgh Parks Department and Touch INC., a cancer outreach. There's the District Marching Band contest in Jasper,  Mass and dinner with Fr. Tim in St. Anthony, IN and Sunday the Day of Rest!

Please join Ruth at Tea Talk today.

Autumn's full glory
Anticipate the beauty
Appreciate it!
