There is a time for everthing, and a season for every activity under heaven, a time to be born and a time to die.... Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 Gallery Post |
Driving home from work one day
It was November 5th
We gained an hour Sunday morn
The time had changed again
The sunset looked so beautiful
I took a different route
I headed West to cross the dam
I got my camera out
"Goat Rodeo" was playing
An awesome classic song
I turned it up, I was alone
The road I traveled long
I stopped my car, its motor on
The middle of the road
A hundred pictures taken
As the sun was sinking low
I only had mere minutes
Before the hues were done
Receiving flowers from Heaven
From God's majestic sun
But little did I know it
On the other side of the dam
Underneath the sunset
A solitary man
He did not see God's beauty
He did not hear the wind
Because a few weeks earlier
His life he chose to end
Someone found him in a tree
November seventeen
He had been hanging from a rope
For many autumn weeks
Under that same sunset
A Texas November dusk
A heart was crying, thanking God
Another had turned to dust.
