Night, the beloved. Night, when words fade and things come alive.
When the destructive analysis of day is done, and all that is truly important
becomes whole and sound again.
When man reassembles his fragmentary self and grows with the calm of a tree.
~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
That blue sky at the bottom surprised me! I like the contrast!
ReplyDeleteWonderful Kerri. :)
ReplyDeleteBoth, the photo and the suitable poem. Beautiful Sky Watch post.
A silhouette to be proud of! Still some structure to be seen. The right kind of softness.
