Golden Days

 

In September, Colorado aspens

become wicks of candle flame

to enlighten the foothills.

They climb steep 

mountainsides

with bands of yellow.


Backlighting

by the autumn sun

enhances their radiance. 

Aspens dazzle my days,

color the green forests,

illuminate the landscape.

Each golden day

is a new opportunity

to glorify our Creator.
