Opal

October sunrise

Paints gold on the horizon.

Autumn crisp air rattles

Leaves that transform, twirl, tumble.

"So, if you faithfully obey the commands I am giving you today—to love the Lord your God and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul— then I will send rain on your land in its season, both autumn and spring rains, so that you may gather in your grain, new wine and olive oil. I will provide grass in the fields for your cattle, and you will eat and be satisfied."- Deuteronomy 11:13-15
