Analysis of Changing Colors
Melita Catalina Warren 1949 (Kansas)
When nature cycles everything dies.
While days pass one grows wise.
Some embark on an ingenious enterprise,
Fluttering about like butterflies.
Nature bestows a snowy surprise,
Transcendent beauty colors devise,
Sunbeams radiate. Sleepy Crocus sighs.
All happens under God’s omniscient eyes.
From here on out nothing but blue skies!
Each fleeting moment gladly prize,
Wearing each new season’s disguise.
