Changing Her Dress
I watched the Sweetgum change her dress,
From simple summer green,
To burgundy as deep and dark
And stunning as a dream.
She did it openly at that,
And flaunted all her charms.
A shameless hussy she became,
Stretching scarlet arms.
I stood in wonderment and watched.
She took no thought of me.
But flagrantly she daily changed.
Such flair I seldom see.
I watched that Vixen dance and sway,
And oh! How glad I am.
Her vibrant robes, originals,
Not "off the racks", nor sham.
I watched the Sweetgum change her dress,
And wondered on my knees,
God loves me more than all the woods!
What lies in store for me!?
