~~~
In the autumn my mind changes
Like the leaves on the trees
Walking, thinking about life
Enjoying the breeze

Saying a prayer of thankfulness
Quietly to myself
Health, love and family
Has been my greatest wealth

Blessing, I have many
Sorrows, I’ve had a share
But my mind and heart are cleansed
In the cool evening air

I’m like a tree in the autumn
Preparing for the winter cold
Stripping myself of weight
As I walk down life’s road

O’ dear friend of mine
Won’t you walk with me?
Through the open fields
Enjoying what life gives free

Great poem. Usually when a person reaches the winter of his/her life they don't prepare for life's blessings any more. This poem is an inspiration to the contrary.
