Handoff

As day drifts into silent slumber
The sun, itself, tucks away 
Under a blanket of darkness
Leaving but the softest nightlight
The moon, for us to use as guide
And inspiration in the nighttime hours

Yes, yes, yes, the beauty of the perfection that is our natural world - an every-inspiring display of love and life! Beautifully put, perfect, Michael. Blessings, Kristin
