Gloaming

I love that there is a line of light on the horizon,

a gleam just beyond

A glow of grey at the billowing edge of green,

the globes atop tree branches

It is dark in the corners –

But there, far away, it is bright.

      Substantial convincing. I like that. I’ll have to remind myself of this phrase when I’m fighting optimism 😊
