  • FAPM October 2018
    THE PARISHES OF St Peter and St Mary, New Fishbourne, and St Mary the Virgin, Apuldram Rector: The Reverend Canon Moira Wickens Awesome Autumn As summer ends and autumn comes, Sunlight and cool nights of Autumn, Days get shorter, misty and cold. Help leaves to turn orangey red, And in this spectacular season, And combine all things smoothly, Nature's beauty graciously unfold. To add magic in season's lovely bed. Trees get ready to slow down, And all this shedding and replacement, And in autumn take some rest. Of leaves continue throughout the year, And show amazing colours of love, And trees only shed leaves in autumn, That are all at their best. To prepare for another winter dear. Green fades away quickly, This is God's spectacular display, And yellow and orange appear, Of beautiful colours of the fall, To show off their vibrant hues, During which many changes occur, And warm-up their surrounding dear. Including yellow, orange, red and all. This poem, written by Seema Chowdhury, sums up for me the wonder of this autumn season. A few months of the year when the created world seems on one hand to take a rest while giving us all a glimpse of God's immense glory. One of the most uplifting things for me at this time of year is to drive along country lanes, under a canopy of tree branches which are displaying so many colours in their leaves. And I am reminded that God's creative work is forever ongoing. I am also reminded that although it may seem as if plants and trees are having a rest beneath the soil, waiting to burst into life in the Spring, they are in fact being fed and nurtured, getting ready for what is to come.
