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.
