In a dazzling blaze of glory the fiery orb dips lower in the horizon. A celestial tapestry is formed by the myriad of colors that streak the early evening skies. The gentle, cooling breeze is beginning to stir -a welcome change from the blistering heat of the day. There is a pervading peacefulness with the winding down of the day's activities that perhaps heightens one's perceptions of their surroundings. The scent of flowers seems more pronounced while the smell of fresh mown grass conjures up images of summers past. My reverie is soon broken by the sweet song of a meadowlark as it settles down for the night. The landscape is now limned with an ethereal glow as the sun slips out of sight. During this twilight hour I am acutely aware of being alive -with every breath of fresh air that I take, with every stroke of God's paintbrush I witness, with every sight and smell and sound I perceive. |

Welcome, and thank you for sharing this beautiful poem. It left me with a tranquil smile, even though I'm about to wind up and cathch the bus for work, instead of winding down. Well done, and welcome to these passionate pages. |
