As the Misty Moon Rides High

The day is coming to a close, all my work is finished. The big bright blue sky, is about to say goodnight. The sky is turning, turning into it's bed for the night. The sky becomes a quilt of pretty colors, pink to purple takes my breath away. As night falls, the sky is getting darker. The stars start to shine, like diamonds on velvet. "As The Misty Moon Rides High," it is time to say goodnight. Let the shining stars dance, dance over my dreams tonight.

A lovely write Paula. I particularly like the clever use of the word 'turning' in the lines: "The sky is turning, turning into it's bed for the night." Cheers - Gary

Lovely, Paula. Speaking of the sky becoming "a quilt of pretty colors", I miss the terrific sunsets I used to witness in West Texas. In 20 years, I've not seen a single one here in the Ozarks.
