MIRACLES DO HAPPEN

Leaves of orange and red and brown
Gently falling down
Heeding Old Man Winter's call.

All the birds have gone their ways
Searching warmer days
For they've sensed the coming Fall.

Pudgy squirrels stock their lair
Scurry here and there
As they forage through the leaves.

The wise spider doesn't nap
As he waits to trap
Victims in the web he weaves.

The old bear prepares for sleep
In his den, dug deep
To await the next year's Spring.

When gray, stormy skies turn blue
And life begins anew
What a miraculous thing!
