Cumberland Falls - “The grass withers and the Flowers Fall”

 

The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever

Isaiah 40.8

Fall Blooms at Cumberland River

It is surprising that there are wild flowers still blooming this late in the fall.  Still feels like summer.

A Home not of Marble floors and Gilded walls

"You'll find, where'er you roam, 

That marble floors and gilded walls 

Can never make a home.  

But every house where Love abides,

And Friendship is a guest,
Is surely home, and home-sweet-home:
For there the heart can rest."

By Henry Van Dyke
