Memorial Day at the Park

 

I thought I was the only one to find sunsets a matter for despair. But perhaps not.

“Loneliness isn't gray.
It is the color of the sky when it bleeds crimson rays in the horizon while there you are standing on the edge somewhere in this boulevard of broken promises, waiting, and waiting for a love that already left.”
― Verliza Gajeles 

 

“i am not the rising star.
i am the drowning sun.”
― Pravin Gupta, The Dark Light: Amethyst Heart in the City 

 

“The sun has collapsed against the vast expanse of the darkening ocean. Soon the turquoise sea will be completely black like a void. I hate the ocean at night. It has me thinking about hopelessness and loss. The red sky a watercolour as the thickening clouds leak together.”
― Ilse V. Rensburg, Time Torn 

 

“At twilight I went into the street.
The sun hung low in the iron sky,
ringed with cold plumage.
If I could write to you
about this emptiness--”
― Louise Glück, Descending Figure 

 

“You know-- one loves the sunset, when one is so sad...”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince 

 

“When the sun is setting, deep inside you, you know that life is setting!”
― Mehmet Murat Ildan 

 

   “Some people know they'll live until spring and that's all they need to be happy. When I was feeling good, I just let the sun go down, knowing I'd see it again next morning. When I felt worse, and it didn't matter for what reasons, every sunset seemed to me like the end of the world. Maybe it's true, that the world dies every day at evening and is born again in the morning. But not always for everybody.”
― Arnost Lustig      

Youthful Exuberance

 

 

 

This fox family has been living under our barn, and the kits are finally big enough to come out and play.  There are three of them, each cuter than the last.  They're beautiful, and I wish them long, healthy lives, full of whatever it is foxes do for fun.

Can't wait to go on a road trip!  Normal is around the corner.
