Between Dusk and Night

Posted on November 19, 2014 by becca givens


Shift in autumn wind
Between evening’s dusk and night
Boys play hide-and-seek

◊◊◊

Swing of dancing leaves
Stained by sunsets grip on dusk
Chestnut peddler hawks

    Love both of these. The first brought back memories.

    I can remember being one of those boys playing hide-and-seek. Thanks for jogging my memory!

    Love it! Thinking of my kids leaf diving — combing, de-leafing, and untangling my daughters long hair.

    And it worked!! I think we had a high of 30 F today. It is now 26 F.
    Time to snuggle under up under my down comforter!

    I like the boys playing. And I can smell the chestnuts!
