My Journey to God

Blaze of Glory

I gaze at your fading beauty
as you wait for the
season of
yielding
your array of colors,
revealing
strength and hope
in the seasons yet
to come.
Your branches now bare
unveiling
the beauty of gnarled yet
strong limbs, a
striking
panoply of faith in
the return of your outward
blaze of glory.
A vision of God’s nature,
urging
me to expose my inner soul, I
pray
my journey will transform me
into a blaze of God’s Glory.
