The Seasons: A Poem

Sunrise over Amazing Grasses Family Farm The mad Artist wields His brush, Painted colors rush, To life and give flush, Before the quiet autumn hush. The life seems to pour, As colors fall to the floor, To be seen no more, Outside the dark, grey door. Brightness from below, Sun upon the snow, High, cold clouds blow, Flakes and ice appear to grow. The man melts with little seen, Underneath, pale, grey green, Hides life in dark unseen, Waits for warmth and to careen. Buds on branches show, Patience starts to grow, Trickles, streams and veins flow, Bringing fruits of melted snow. Sprung to life it springs, Bees, birds, sound rings, Lush green flings, Its gift bounty brings. Green growth gives one last rush, Underneath the Painter's brush. The mad Artist wields His brush, before the quiet autumn hush. More poetry is available from James M. Hahn in  The Last Dragon and Other Poems  available now.

Smallest act of love.

Tuesday October 31st - The Eve of All Saints

Luke 13:18-21

The Kingdom of God
starts very small
like mustard seed or yeast
yet when it grows
it changes all
the greatest that which was least

Our efforts seem
to no avail
or seem to take to long
yet when we see
the good that's grown
happily we were wrong.

Your task it is
to sow the seed
to be tiny leaven
by action, deed
prayer, and thoughts
help others on to heaven.

Be not discouraged by failure
or slow unmeasurable growth
it is the smallest act of love
that changes the world the most.
