the sun slipped
below the clouds as she went to wake up the rest of the world
and gave us a smile before she went on her way.
it seemed a much longer sunset than usual,
it made the fields a honey gold and long shadows across the grass
and so
my Bella & I sat together
and let it soak in
~*~
the thankful heart
...will find, in every hour,
some heavenly blessings
Henry Ward Beecher
