At Days End

I find myself alone in the garden.......sounds are softer now, as evening closes in and the sun leaves a memory across the sky for all to see, I breathe  it in.

I contemplate the ending of something, the drawing to a close......that point where everything we thought we knew stops and darkness surrounds us....still and quiet.

I stand for a while watching as the colours shift and change...........something within me knows tomorrow will come as it always does, there can never be a finality to life, that point where everything and everyone ceases to exist........a new day does come, sometimes its a case of having the strength to step into the darkness and trust the ground beneath you will hold firm.........this I know is often easier said than done.

So tonight, rain or shine, go outside and watch the day close, celebrate the possibility of tomorrow, the opportunities that may present themselves.

Listen to the earth as it drifts off to sleep and trust that something wonderful is about to happen.....to you.....to me......to all  that take a few moments to notice !
