of what will be-
all I see
is you and me
sitting high
above the trees
as we watch
the setting sun
’till all that’s left
are twinkling lights
of a starry, starry
moonlit night
we dream of what
tomorrow brings-
when we’ll watch
the rising sun
I peeked through my curtains the other evening and all I saw was a cloudless, monochromatic sky. No color to be seen. Imagine my surprise when I got an email a few minutes later from my hubby (who was at work) with this magnificent sunset picture! Isn’t it so peculiar that I would see nothing… and yet my husband got this spectacular show of color? On the same night, only a few miles away?
But the beauty was that he knew how much I would appreciate it, and so he took the picture for me.
A picture worth thousand “I love you’s”!

It’s lovely. I thought for a minute it was part of my home town, Minneapolis. God sure does some amazing art, doesn’t He?

It is beautiful-isn’t it? Where our house is, there are a lot of trees around, so I don’t get a good view of the sunset. It was a nice surprise for my husband to send me that picture from his office the other day 🙂 Blessings to you!!

Oh, Julie, this is beautiful. Poem and photograph. Honestly, I read your words twice over before taking a true look at the picture.

You are so kind 🙂 I tell my husband all the time that when we are old and retired, all I want to do is be able to sit together and watch the sunsets and sunrises together! That really is my “dream” 🙂 Blessings to you!!
