An Ode to Fall, a Poem

Happy first day of fall! Here’s a beautiful poem about autumn from my friend Charlotte Adelsperger. I hope you enjoy it!

Prayerfully I Walk
Time alone in an autumn wood,
I stroll on a mosaic carpet
of moist multicolored leaves–
rust brown, yellow, crimson.
I ponder the deep red patches,
scattered every step of my way.
Silently they speak of our Savior’s
redemptive, sacrificial blood—
blessing each pace on the path of life.
