As night steals away

It never ceases to amaze me, the incredible and inspiring works from some amazing photographers that I trip over, discover and delight in on Red Bubble.

And I’ve just found another by Andy Smylie, which has brought forth a short piece of writing.

Again it tumbled out in comment form, but is now slightly re-worked.

Short.
But often shorter is better.

As night steals away belongs to the following groups:

All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Skyscapes and Sunrise, Sunset

As night steals away
and dawn slowly creeps
to take its place
the world is still, silent,
breath-holding and waiting
for the sun to show its face.

    Oh thank you so much Bev.
    It’s so short I almost didn’t post it….if it was a song I’d call it a ditty!

    : ))))

    Wonderful sentiments. Glad my image inspired you so.

    Your words are wonderful. They put very simply into a few words that wonderful feeling of being alive and witnessing that special time of the morning.
