Descriptions of the Evening – August 22, 2006
I’m running out of time…
How does one describe the color of the sky at the brink of night? The shimmery blue of the daylight remains but has darkened to a gradient of navy progressing ever darker to the east.
A translucent light emanates from the west as the fading sunlight highlights one side of the airy gray clouds, a true silver lining. The clouds still stand out against the deepening night, renewing memories of the day. Their shadows no longer cast their shade upon the earth as the night has stolen their job. Only their high beauty remains.
Slight sparkles of starlight brighten with the passing minutes. Several issue wishes from the earth of the first evening star. Minds and hearts focus skyward, not only physically, but also mentally on dreams and aspirations.
Within a few minutes, night has completed its swift invasion from the Trojan horse of the bright colors painting the sky from the sunset. Even in the obese amount of artificial light of California, more and more stars appear. They dot the heavens, watching over the earth.
The moon hides tonight as the navy continues to deepen … deepen… deepen… and the world is covered.
