            Changing Faces

 

Spring and summer are times when

the mountains quit shaving

and their leafy green beards

begin to hide their crag-like faces.

 

They look forward to these seasons.

It’s as if they put on disguises

and can travel incognito

as one looks almost like the other.

 

But each year autumn

seems to sneak up on them.

First their leafy disguise turns many colors,

and then it disappears all together.

 

When winter comes,

we see their true identity

as their stoic countenance

is laid completely bare.

 

Without the changing of the seasons,

we’d miss this annual transformation:

God’s glorious miracle

that He orchestrates each year.
