Question: Have you ever just stopped and admired something in awe!?
Fall Tree
Paused this day upon a sun lit tree
a gift before the snows erase!.
No wind and perfect fall splendor met
to birth this tribute… golden ram!.
I have lived long upon this land
jaded in the beauty oft displayed
but today I stopped in wonder awe
Moses, burning bush, this wondrous tree!.
An omen, a signal, or just a tree…
I did not care, beauty held my eye!.
Rapture bequeaths its special gift
and blessed am I to pass by this day!.

I am not of a fan of poems but I loved reading this ,,,,,,woooow Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, I have!.
And in my front yard, I have a bush about 8 feet high, and almost 8 feet across!. It is called Burning Bush!. About this time each year, the leaves turn from green to a brilliant red, and stay that way for a few weeks before shedding them!. It has a bird nest in the center, and I am not sure if it is coincidence, or if their is another reason, but for the last three years it has produced a brood of red cardinals from it's midst!. I think they like it because the neighbor's cat can't get to them in there!. Even George and Gracie squirrel don't play in that bush!. Yep, I watch nature!.
