Jehovah as Tree Surgeon

   Jehovah as Tree Surgeon

The early color in the autumn leaves

Reminds of love.  Each hot and hotter hue

Brands deeply on my heart, but none deceives

Me even for one moment that bright you

Will ever shine against the blue of fall,

Of fall’s high heaven once again.  Never

Will golds or yellows, orange, reds be tall

Again against such coldness.  Forever

Forbidden is that combination now.

Not even Christ can muster up a breath

To bring perfection to an autumn bough:

Today exquisiteness is stained with death.

..You lost your only son.  God made an end

….To colored hearts and love, my now lost friend.
