A Goodnight Kiss

As I watch the sun trade places with the stars, I am overwhelmed with the understanding that beauty isn't diminished in darkness. The grass is still green the flowers still smell and the intricacies of every inch of our world remain. The limitations of my vision do not determine the world around me. Reality does not bend to what I cannot see. As the sun nods off to sleep, she does not leave without a kiss goodnight. She pulls the color from the earth and into the sky to remind us in a whole new palate just how much beauty exists in each day. So kiss her back; marvel at the painted skies and dazzling stars, and rest in the knowing that the beauty of the day remains.
