I've heard in the winds
whispers that Autumn,
is leaving us soon..
I found her leaves
laying gracefully
across the country road.
Like making a dare
For me to cross the line
and disturb them.
Jack frost has been,
courting her nightly now.
Bringing her beautiful diamonds
on early morning trays
of trailing light.
They dance benieth sunsets
and slow moving fog..
His icy hands touch
places that summer
has yet to let go..
Jack loves her you know...
But i've been watching
(Each day she is fading. )
her colors seem to be
losing their bright
youthful attire..
Autumns last days
are here.
She's saying
goodbye...

Lord, i ask that you send
wisdom to those
who can change things...
May they know the pain
of being without work..
of being without hope
trying to survive
on Daily Blessings.....
I ask in faith
that wisdom be found
to change this time
into a time of peace
that all will know
Your gifts
Your blessings...
Your love
Your promice.
Please Let there be
a end to war
and a road to peace..
these things i ask in faith.
that all i need to do
is ask..
Amen..

As I sat benieth a Autumn tree
Before the leaves began their fall
I watched as shadows slowly danced
on Natures Mirror for us all..
The sky was blue, peeking through
as the sun began it's slow decline
and i heard a whisper in the wind
that spoke of Summertime...
I watched the sun burt through white clouds
like a diamond it did shine...
as if a star was there for me to see
( to find within the light of time...)
I thanked the Lord for blessing me
with the time for which to see
that nothing can change, the "little things"
Seasons give us all for free.
With the way this world it's going
It's past time for us to find
Believers who will 2 by 2
Agree that Peace On Earth we'll find..
For when more believe in something
then that something we will find..
and peace can be reality
and like a diamond it will shine...

“When is the war going to end”
he asked shaking his little head…
and I told that I didn’t know
as i tucked him into bed….
“but Daddys been gone so long”
he said with blue eyes looking sad..
so i sat awhile and told him how
to talk to God about his Dad…..
He bowed his little head and said
“God,Im trusting that mom is right
and you hear every prayer that’s said
cause i got a special one tonight…
please look over daddy and
keep him safe and bring him home…
mom and me we miss him Lord
we feel so all alone..
“I know i’m just a little kid
and you got others praying too
but just in case you really hear my prayers
i want mine to to get to You.”
He seemed to pause as if in thought
then he bowed his head again
and said “me and my mommy know that You”
“Can Bring Dad Home to us”…Amen”
As he feel alseep i watched
him sleep, like i so often do..
and took the time to talk to God
Asking for a Blessing too…
I asked the Lord, with all my faith
to make my sons eyes laugh again.
and know his dad is safely home
to hug and love Amen…….

poetry and picture by Connetta Jean

I wish that i 'd been born to be
as perfect as Mother Nature can be.
With everything within it's place
And nothing scattered about in haste.
Her pictures paint a thousand words
and she talks to animals and birds.
Her Seasons change ( she's never late)
Though she leaves everything to fate.
Her smiles are seen everywhere
(just look around and find them there.)
on evening sunsets, mornings at dawn
On raimbows oh i could go on and on.
She loves Old man Winter ( Jack Frost too)
and helps them sparkle in the morning dew..
She takes rides upon a breeze of wind
Never doubt, she is your friend.
from every corner of this Earth
Mother Nature shows her worth..
who could not notice just like me
there's aways something new to see.
winter summer spring and fall
Mother Natures Art is best of all....
