Eternal Color
In spring , trees' leaves were merely buds when everything was new.
They couldn't shade, nor hide a bird, but everyday they grew.

Now autumn's here, and leaves have turned from summertime's full bloom.
They separate from branch, their home, and snow will be their tomb.

How sad that when they're at their peak, it's time for them to go.
Yet, how colorful they made this world; it was God's plan, I know.

Your life, too, was most beautiful; how brightly shone your heart.
For now, my friend, you've joined the leaved, and from us, did depart

Separated from us on earth you've joined the Lord above.
We'll miss you here, our dearest friend, but glad you taught us love.

LeeAnn Abell
