The heat of midday has passed giving way to a cool evening breeze. The Sun is slowly falling into the horizon and its beams cast lengthening shadows.
Other than the gentle rustling of the trees, as the wind breathes over the leaves, the only sounds are the trilling of insects and the glorious birdsong sharing the warmth of a summer’s eve.
We sit in silence, letting the warm rays caress us, basking in the tranquility of the scene.
I feel my eyes growing heavy as a calmness envelops me and a sense of joy washes away my cares.
You whisper,“Look!” and opening my eyes I catch my breath as I view the sky turning vibrant orange and red as the Sun touches that distant horizon.
