Make Over

National Catholic Reporter,  Oct 26, 2007  by Barbara Bradley

Make Over

   Leaves fall gracefully,
   Gentle the separation from branch.
   Silently they settle down
   ad random
   On the ground beneath.

   Trees, in stages of disrobe,
   Spread naked limbs,
   Yielding to the rites of Autumn.
   We gaze in wonder.

   I, like rolling seasons,
   alter my outward show
   See me now--and then again
   Fail not to note the altered me
   When grace has worked its magic.

--Sr. Barbara Bradley, SSJ Philadelphia
